RE: How to end the command that is running interactively in a user'ssession?

I have no explanation of this, nor logic.  Heck, I'm not even sure it 
really works.  But in similar circumstances I've put the job on hold 
first, waited till that happened, then ended the job with *IMMED.  That 
combination seems to work fairly fast, but then,  maybe it is just 
appearances.

We've used a break handling program with the user's message delivery set
to break. The break program checks for a message with a specific ID - if
it's found, it executes the message data as a command. This is run from
inside the user's job & call stack. I use it for things like copying
QTEMP files to somewhere I can look at the contents. It might work for an
ENDRQS. If you want to try I can put the code up on my site (see sig).
