Thank you very much.     Yudaman!!

BTW, the sleep was just to slow down the sample script enough to give me time to see that the gui wasn't posting the data as it is generated.  It isn't actually part of the script.

I believe that your approach will work just fine.  This is actually intended to be a part of a larger multiple destination FTP tool and the information to be displayed is the results of the individual FTP sessions as they are happening (hence the simulated time lag with the sleep command).  I think you have cleared the cobwebs from my head well enough for me to get on with it.  I actually have everything else completed and working properly, I just wanted to add the "feel good" feedback that the FTP sessions are continuing without the user sitting and wondering if the process has failed ot not.

Thanks again.
