Hi All,

I rate shop several different carriers concurrently to find the best rate.
Most I send a json or xml document. A couple of others its all done in the
url call.
They all run within 3-4 seconds, usually.

Calls are like:
Rc = http_url_get( Request : ResponseFile);

rc = http_post_stmf( RateURLLive
: %Trim(RequestFile)
: %Trim(ResponseFile));

Occasionally a carrier seems like they get stuck and hangs for a couple of
minutes before it finally cancels.

Is there a way to set the amount of time that the call will abort, say 15
seconds?

Thank You!
