>>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?

Yes I know that. But it doesn't log you out of the application. And if the person leaves for the day and we try an application upgrade...it causes a problem.
