Hi

The MSGs are present in the MSGF.PRO file. You could replace/amend record "SYSTEM E 366" with something more appropriate.
You could amend this MSG on any pro-iv DEV environment and then using isout/isin for a sinlge record, replace the MSG on the user/RUN environment.

Thanks for the suggestion George. I think we've managed to get done what we need to now.

Regards.

No - that's low-level, it's hard-coded in the kernel.
And you wouldn't want to be changing that frankly..

I have to ask: Why are you disconnecting sessions for users who are still active and can see these error messages?

It's a very long story, but the main aim is to kill off processes for crashed sessions rather than active ones. The active ones are just being used for testing at the moment and it threw up this query which I think I have answers for now so many thanks for all the help.

Regards.

Not familiar with Dev Studio.

There's probably no function named SYSTEM by default but if you create one (ie: just a dummy) using @MOD or whatever then you can access the system errror messages as if they were the regular error messages of that function.

Your support contract is now void

Thanks Richard - that's a great help.

While I have your attention though, following this we get the message 'Process terminating due to rollback failure'. Is there anyway to edit this one as well - I couldn't see it in the list of errors for the SYSTEM function.

Incidentally, I'm looking after an old application that is now defunct so we've no plans to move to a supported version of Pro-iv which is why Mr Donovans forum is useful.

Thanks again.

The system messages are stored simply as the error messages of a function named SYSTEM.

Thanks for the quick response Richard, but I'm not exactly sure what you mean.

Do you mean a Pro-iv function that is accessible using Dev Studio or event @MOD? I can't see this on the system I'm using.

Or do you have to be sneaky and edit Logic etc directly?

Cheers.

Thanks for that Neil. Just one more question though. I'm having a problem when using the '?' help option i.e. click the '?' button then click on a part of the application. Doing this appears to ignore the SET_HELP_FILENAME setting. F1 does however still use this setting.
