>Here's my scenario.
>The app is integrated with QuickBooks using the QBFC COM object.
>At one of our sites, it sometimes take a very long time for the BeginSession() method to connect to the company file. Once in a while, it does not connect at all and the user must use the task manager to shut down our app and try again.

>I'd like to be able to put a timeout on this so that the user does not need to take such action. But the ways I know of in VFP for interrupting execution put the brakes on after the current line finishes executing. In our case, the current line does not finish executing.
