Thanks Dwight for responding!
I have been able to exit cleanly out of STAR most of the time.
I do something similar to your sub in Rules, but I use the following command
for STAR to get me to that point.
Enter "/./" 'Log out of STAR at any point in the Script
Most-likely, with your sub-routine you may not have to loop and Enter ".",
because the Enter "/./" seems to take you right to the "Press NL--" so your
next command can be Enter "". I also use the Key "@_AutoClose" at the beginning
while I am connecting to HBOWem and that seems to work fine.
What I was hoping to find, is if anyone has more tricks in STAR like "/./"
(which logs you are of Star from any screen). There has to be more Navigation
tricks from some STAR experts that can give me shortcuts while moving through
STAR.
Thanks for the feedback!
Scott

Scott,
I use something like this for most of my BWS scripts to exit out of the HBO Wem
cleanly:
Sub Logout()
Dim vLogout As String
vLogout = View(Row:=23, Col:=1, length:=10)
Do Until vLogout = "Press NL--"
Enter "."
vLogout = View(Row:=23, Col:=1, length:=10)
Wait 0.2
Loop
Enter ""
Key "@_CLOSE"
End Sub
Thanks,
Dwight
