In addition to what Oma offered:
Q1. You can use: set user
This will provide a box for password entry that shows asterisks.
Q2. I don't use them, most don't from what I've seen here. The problem seems to be
that the code continues to execute after they come onto the screen. You can code a
loop after bringing up MDI forms. There was something on this about a week ago.
Q4. You can print out the R:Base error messages to a file with:
set var v1 int = 1
output ERRMESS.DOC
WHILE v1 < 5000 THEN
write v1
show err v1
set var v1 = .v1 + 1
ENDWHILE
output terminal
I think that 5000 is high enough. You may find that some messages do not print with
this method, but most do.
