Bernie/Gunnar,
Thanks. The Reload user must successfully MULTI OFF in order to Reload.
The code is:
-- Check if other Users Online
DISCONNECT
SET MULTI OFF
CONNECT mmis
SET VAR verr = .vderr
IF verr <> "0" THEN
CLS; BEEP
PAUSE 2 USING "Other Users still Online" AT 10
RUN main IN cpms.prc
ENDIF
....
Perform Reload
Dennis
