[DXBase] exit and restart dxbase

Thu, 5 Dec 2002 15:17:26 -0500

This is another one that I know about.
I have had the same problem.
When this happens if you will hit Ctrl/Alt/Delete
which will bring up your task manager, look under
the "Processes" tab and you will find that DXBase
is still running in that window. Click on it and then
click "End Process", you will be ask if you are sure
click"Yes" then you can go and start DXBase. I have
no idea what the problem is but this will keep you from
having to shut the computer down and restart.

Subject: [DXBase] exit and restart dxbase
two out of maybe four to five times when I exit dxbase 2003 I can not
restart the program.
hitting the shortcut or even run the program from command line won't start
up the program.
I have to leave my windows XP session ... this means, logging off and
logging on again.
after that Dxbase can be fired again. Really enoying, specially when you
want to exit and load another log profile.
Also when this happened I sometimes can not shutdown windows, because dxbase
still has things into memory.
A error message pops up (can not get a screenshot because all hangs) and
after 10 tot 15 seconds the message disappears and XP shuts down.
Could it be that Dxbase keeps things into memory without knowing what.
This also (3th kind of a problem) results in other programs telling the I/O
device is already in use when I like to run another program to control my
ts2000. This program thinks com2 is still in use.
It all points out to the fact the I/O is kept bussy by DXBASE. Maybe this
also results in the problematic shut down or restart of the program.
I'm not a programmer, so beats me, but very enoying because this happens two
out of four times. I hate logging of all the time just because one program
makes me to ...
Help, help ...
