Remotely exit VFP applications across the network
Greg Reichert, GLR Software
Monitor and remotely terminate running application from across the network. Great for those times you need to force users out of applications they have left running. Also, the administrator can check for dead applications or those that are reporting they are in a critical section of the program, like long updates to reporting.

General information
Description
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Change History 7/11/2003 Initial Release 1/12/2004 Minor correction and enhancements (see code) as suggested by Colin Northway. 1/28/2004 Changed the _VFP.HWND reference to property on the QuitApp class, and load it from GetActiveWindow API function. This was suggested by Sergey Berezniker. 11/19/2004 Remove HWND assignment in Timer event. Suggested by redleaf@clear.net.nz. 11/19/2004 Change the HWND assignment to be VFP 6.0 compatible. 11/19/2004 Remove the record from the table on exit. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An administrator can monitor which applications are running, and instruct them termination themselves. This component is based on a Timer class with a one minute interval. Each minute the application check to see if the administrator wishs the application to quit. If discovered so, the countdown begins (default 10 minutes). During the Countdown, a message is displayed notifing the user that the automatic termination of the application is underway. They can manual exit the application, or wait for the automatic. Either way, it is intended for the user to complete their current task. At the end of the countdown, the application issues a QUIT command.

Greg, Very nice design, but for some reason QuitApp is not adding records? jcohen@igc.com Jonathan Cohen, January 20, 2004

This does not work in VFP6 as far as I can tell because the _VFP.HWND variable is only available from version 7 and up. I searched but could not find a suitable substitution for VFP6. Is there a reasonable workaround? Jay Johengen, January 28, 2004

The latest version has been tuned to work in VFP 6.0 and greater. Greg Reichert, February 6, 2004

Greg, I have noticed a couple of things that have greatly enhanced the product as I use it. I'd love to share them with you. Contact me at randy@abesoftware.com. Other than that, an ingenious idea. Randy W Fogg Randy Fogg, April 13, 2004

This tiny control resizes controls on forms. Just drop this control on any form. Set the TAG properties of the controls you wish to resize to a combination of T,L,H,W. And place a Thisform.Refresh() statement in the form's Resize event. That is all there is to it. Now work properly in VFP 6.0.

This control is a simple treeview using the WebBrowser control and a HTML file to drive a VFP form. The tree itself is a standard html outline using the "UL"/"LI" tags. What make this the simplest, is that the only one OnClick event is established, and that is at the first (or root) "UL" tag.
