Hello List:

   I have a very large script that builds InDesign pages, then places 
pictures onto those pages.  The images are stored on servers, the volumes 
of which must be determined and then mounted.  This takes time (sometimes 
a lot of time) during which nothing happens on the screen, and my users 
don't know if the script has broken or is just taking its time.

   The code that mounts, however, has a definite beginnning and end. I 
would like to toss up a dialog just before initiating the process, and 
then remove the dialog after the process is complete.  Is there any way to 
do something likek that? 

TIA!

John
