dfournie Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Pete, This may be way down in the weeds, but would it be possible to request a switch (Yes/No) in the Wideclient.ini file that determines whether to show the message box that is displayed when it is attempted to run a second copy of WideClient with one already running? ie a "silent" mode. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. What, just terminate without doing anything? That's rather unfriendly. Why would you want that? Or do you mean somehow passing on all the parameters (Run/RunReady etc) to the running copy and letting it "restart" or something? That's quite a lot of work.

dfournie Posted September 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I just would like the option to see/not see the message box "Same program or class already running (FS98MAIN)". All the rest can function normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the rest can function normally. The problem is, that message is telling you WHY WideClient cannot run! It cannot "function normally"! By not running it is also not obeying any of the parameters, especially, for instance, those parameters telling it to load and run your programs. It seems to me that it is the most unfriendly and annoying thing to have a program fail completely and not tell you why. Regards, Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
