Flashing message during open query

Is there any way to display a flashing message during a lengthy open query?

OPEN QUERY browse-1 FOR EACH LOCATE NO-LOCK
WHERE...

The WHERE statement contains many clauses and the resulting search process can take a little time. I want to give the users some feedback (reassurance) that the procedure is still running and has not died or quit responding.

Any help for this neophyte progress programmer would be greatly appreciated.
 
Before you open the query, enable a timer control to display a message, and after the query, disable it again. should do what u want
