Hi,

I am trying to close my app after a certain interval of user inactivity.
This is the code that you put on this forum a while ago. It worked except in the case of modal forms. When the user leaves the screen while in a modal form, a foxpro message comes as 'cannot quit visual foxpro'
How can I get around this and quit the app??
I tried a few work arounds, but they did'nt help.

Also, I changed the timer code little bit, in PROCEDURE timeoutapp, instead of goProgram.OnQuit, I said 'QUIT'.

Thanks in advance.
