Buttons????

[phirestalker]

ok I have a program that needs to perform actions repeatedly but only WHILE the user has the Button held down the only way i figure I can do that since regular buttons don't have a pressed propery is to create a thread and point it to a constant while loop and start the thread in the mousedown event handler of the button and stop the thread in the mouseup event handler. but what I want to know is: Is there a better way???


Please help
