[Ql-Users] Daughter Job?
Hi A rather odd request, but does anyone know how an SBasic program could determine if its running as job 0 or as an executed daughter job? Cheers Malcolm ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

Unless you rename it "" (blank). The job ID of SBASIC will not be 0. George ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
