I have written a program that is to be add to the job scheduler 
that has a do forever loop (DoW 1=1).  I remember hearing some 
discussion that there was something you were supposed to do so 
programs could close gracefully if given an ENDJOB.
     
Where do I even start to look for this?  This program does not 
require a graceful end, as it does a bit of processing then waits 
for a long time (usually 24 hours I would think) and there is a 
lot of idle time, so I doubt if they will hit the job with and end 
during processing, but you never know.
     
Any pointers to the manual or how to do this would be appreciated.
     
Regards,
