    <p>I haven't been able to find anyone else having this same problem, so hopefully someone might have some ideas or be able to point me to another answer. </p> <p>When a function is run by pressing a button on the form, another button should become visible. However, the button never shows up even though it is the first thing in the function. All of the other code in the function works perfectly.</p> <p>Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>private void trackbar_Change(object sender, EventArgs e) { button.Visible = true; progressbar.Visible = true; ... progressbar.Visible = false; button.Visible = false; } </code></pre> <p>The progress bar shows up and works fine, and all other code in the function works fine as well, but the button never shows up at all.</p> <p>If I remove <code>button.Visible = false;</code> from the end of the function, then the button DOES show up, but only after all other code has executed. Like this:</p> <pre><code>private void trackbar_Change(object sender, EventArgs e) { button.Visible = true; progressbar.Visible = true; ... progressbar.Visible = false; //button.Visible = false; } </code></pre> <p>Commenting out that line causes the button to show up. Now if I add a message box after the button line, then it also works. </p> <pre><code>private void trackbar_Change(object sender, EventArgs e) { button.Visible = true; MessageBox.Show("Button should be visible now"); progressbar.Visible = true; ... progressbar.Visible = false; button.Visible = false; } </code></pre> <p>Adding the message box after the button line caused the button to show up at the right time.</p> <p>Does anyone have any ideas why this button is behaving this way? </p>

    2. COduring `trackbar_Change()`, the UI is not going to update unless it's blocked by something like putting up a message box. You'll need to hide the button somewhere else. (Perhaps, on progresscomplete of the progress bar?)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
