I have a delay in a pushbutton opening a spreadsheet

On a panel I have a month combobox and a day combobox where I select the month and day and then click on a pushbutton to open a logged spreadsheet. The problem I'm having is one I seem to remember having back in 2007 when I did this on another project. When I click on the pushbutton it stays down just like it was connected to a data member waiting to go high. But it's just a local pushbutton. When I click it againg it pops back up and the spreadsheet opens immediately. Like I said I've had this problem before but I can't remember how I fixed it. I had to look back on the old project for the code to open the spreadsheet in the run object because I never would have remembered how I did that. Any help would be appreciated.

Verify that there is nothing going back to the connection of value.

 

I have had this show up before, is the pushbutton also operating the spreadsheet import?  The delay may be because of processing.  For our reports the pushbutton starts a Sequencer object for delays which queries the SQL, formats and then presents the display/panel.

thanks mike for the reply....the pushbutton isn't connected to anything. It's just a local pushbutton that opens the excel spreadsheet i have logged values to. The button will load the spreadsheet instantly when i push the button down. But that's where it stays. To load the spreadsheet again you have to push the button to let it come back up and then push it down again.....randy
