Ashish,
Maybe this will help: I set two global variables cSTART and cValueNow, and provide about a minute countdown before termination.

*Main.prg
cSTART= SYS(2)
DO MENUTOOL.MPR
DO Form NTABTOOL
READ EVENT
*Button Pressed
cSTART= SYS(2)
thisformset.Forms(1).timer1.Interval= 100000 && Reference MainForm Timer
*** MAIN FORM TIMER1.TIMER FOR 1 hour inactivity SHUTDOWN TIME ADD EXTERNAL LOOP LIMIT TO MESS
cValueNow= SYS(2)
if Val(cValueNow) - Val(cSTART) > 3600
This.Interval= 1111
wait window nowait "Application will Shutdown in - "+ STR(3701-(Val(cValueNow) - Val(cSTART)))+ " seconds!"
if Val(cValueNow) - Val(cSTART) > 3700
This.Interval= 0
DO Xit
endif
endif
