In Arev it was easy to create voc*start and in start program and tell:

if @username=JOE'

perform "MY_PROG"

perform "OFF"

and the report etc. was run and Arev exited.

I have used this to create weekly reports etc. automatically.

In OI I have set entry point which is my custom login window.

All users log in thru that window as username=USER.

The access and PW management is custom written.

How do I now by-pass this directly into some window, execute my weekly reports etc. and exit OI gracefully?

Kauko,

There are various ways this can be done but the most straightforward one that I can think of in your situation is to create a separate database user with the Database Manager that only you use. Then the CREATE event of your custom login window can check the value of @USERNAME just like you did with AREV.

Thanks.

At the meantime I dreamed up a solution with different application name inherited from the original application.

Over there I can have different entry point where thar form executes whatever I need to.

To shut down gracefully, use

CALL UTILITY("DESTROY","SYSTEM")

Recommend you put in a YIELD and even a second or two delay before this just to ensure all events are completed.

Since all processing happens in Create event End_Window(@Window) seems to also work just fine when the process is run from the batch file.
