Hi, I'm after a few tips on the best way(s) to handle long running procedures or reports. For example I want to allow a user to start a procedure that will update a lot of sales orders, allow them to continur working in my applciation while the procedure runs, them inform them when it's finished.

I'd possibly like to do the same with certain reports.

Kind Regards
Reg

Hi Reg,

there are several ways of doing that. Secondary threads are one, by example, but I find that a very EASY way of achieving what you described is to do that in a separate window that is open using OPENSISTER, from the main window.

As a sister, you basically have an independent program doing whatever it needs without interfering with your main window.

Best regards

Thanks Fabrice, I'll look into that :-)
