Facility to force DFPRINT to Foreground - E4000023 - updated 20 September 2002

 

Occasionally users encounter a problem with the DFPRINT program which causes them to think that their application has hung. When DFPRINT is run interactively it normally will become the active application in the usual way. However, if before DFPRINT starts an impatient user presses the Enter key a few times, then DFPRINT never becomes active, and the calling application pauses indefinitely, waiting for it to finish. If the DFPRINT window is completely hidden behind the application, and the taskbar has been hidden users may not realise what has happened.

With this version of DFPRINT, if you set DFPRINTForeground=1 in the [TRMW] section of datafit.ini, then DFPRINT will force itself to the foreground when it wants input from the user.
