How can i run two loops at the same time.
I want one running my paint progress report updated every second.
The other running the main loop.
Please help. Thank you.

why dont you have the main loop, then call the paint procedure often?

Thanks for replying quickly. I did have a go at that but it would update the paint very jumpy . I wondering if it would be possible to multiloop?

What you're describing is called multi-threading, and it is a capability that Simba does not have (or, at the very least, it doesn't support it anywhere near well good enough to make use of it).

No problem. It's too bad we don't have multi-threading. But then again, that may also be a good thing ;)
