Well I would like to keep the window open for one.  Basically he's my process.  A user starts to enter a new change request.  They can create tasks for that change request.  In that task they can create an outage which is another form.  They first have to save the task before they can create an outage.The outage form is passed the taskID.  The prcess in question is assigned to the save button on the task form. The problem is, and it's a small problem, I would like the keep the task form open after they save it.  Currently this only happens when they are modifing an existing task.  On a new task it automatically closes the form.  I was just wondering if I could replace this process with just a commit command instead, which is why I would like to know what exactly this process does and the code/actions behind it.  In the end, if it's too much work to just replace the command I won't do it.  But I would like to know for future reference as it could be a viable command to use in future development.

I agree with Carey, do not remove this workflow.  However, you may add workflow before this Active Link.  I would look very closely at all of the active links for this particular form and see if I could move it to a larger sequence number or bundle your additional workflow into an Active Link Guide and trigger it from one Active Link.

From the Documentation:

PERFORM-ACTION-APPLY

Performs the Apply or Save operation on the current window. For Search windows, the search is performed.

Is this the same as just doing a commit?  It seems to do a little bit more, like open a message box and close the window.  Anyone know what exactly this process does?  I am wondering if I can remove this from our Change Request piece so that I may add more workflow afterwards while the window is open.
