>Our office is supposed to be very concious about security...apparently users are walking away from their desks and leaving secure applications running. This is also causing a problem with automatic updates, because leaving the FoxPro app running locks certain tables which causes issues. I am looking to add a IDLE TIMEOUT to my application watching for mouse and keyboard movement... Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?

Most companies handle that in their network security group policy. They force a logon screen saver to kick in after so many minutes of inactivity. It is very easy to do.
