Roy if possible I would reengineer using UniBasic as the driver program calling other programs and paragraphs.

The paragraph calls many other procs and paragraphs as well as a number of basic programs. What I found is that if someone exits a basic program, control is returned to the calling paragraph. Since the paragraph is in use I cannot modify it and accomplish anything that way. Obviously reading something from the command line won't work in this circumstance. With a PQ type proc I could set a flag like INVALID and procwrite it back to the calling paragraph for testing to see if the proc should continue. I believe the idea of using @user0 may work but I haven't had a chance to test it. I was also hoping to avoid writing something to a file since there are many instances of this and clearing the flags could be a problem.
