Re: How can I disappear a window without user input?

Tom,

How would the window -know- when the process is finished unless you tell it?

Point your favorite tn5250 to 63.167.147.10 and sign on as wyatterp.

If you are at menu SIGNON, take option #1.  If someone has been messing with the
menus again, run command PBARDEMO.

The program that displays the window is a separate called program.  The caller
initiates the window program, does a periodic call to have it update the display
with the current entry number being processed, then when the process is through,
it's called again with a shutdown code.

The code is available in library WYATTERPP file QPGMSRC and they start with
PBAR.  The caller uses /COPY $SHOWSTS.  The ILE version is in file #ILECPY and
the RPG/400 version is in #RPGCPY.

Go to menu WYATTERP to get a command line.
