Hello list !

At user login to client, I would like to have a form being started not visible to the user (and the form has an AL running on timer intervall, pushing data to another form - that is the real desire).

Thought about making use of the init form, but issue is that the form closes immediately.

Anyone could think of an idea (beside attaching the AL to every possible form the user could be using ;-)

Thanks ! ...greetz from Germany, Robert

** Hi Robert!

You may include on you Init form an active link opening another init2 form, where you place your actual active link running on interval. The problem is, the form will be visible for a user. You may try to build a macro which will minimize this form into an icon, but user will be still able to open this form and close it in one way or another.

You may think of making init2 form with no visible fields, with some information for users: e.g. asking to keep a form open.

P.S. Maybe you remember my face from Bracknel (about 4 years ago - Troubleshooting and Performance tuning course and trip to Windsor).

Hi Darek !

But of course I remember. It's just recently that I have passed the 30 mark, so still being able to remember some things here and there *g* ...forgot about the trip to Windsor though :-)

Nice weekend and thanks, Robert

Hey,

The solution I would use is to create a global field on all the forms you are discussing (same Field ID obviously), and use one global AL.
