try adding an INFORMATION...NOW RESPONSE to an appropriate point in your QUICK
screen's UPDATE procedure (generated from the default with a BUILD LIST DETAIL

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><FONT size=2><SPAN class=716521822-20062005>Run the
screen, enter a new record (or find an existing one and change it) then enter an
update command (U, US, whatever). This will cause QUICK to start executing the
UPDATE procedure (lock files, put records, etc.) but stop when it reaches the
INFO verb, display the message you specified and prompt you to press
<Return> to continue. At this point your files are locked and if you now
run your QTP thats what it should see.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><FONT size=2><SPAN class=716521822-20062005>And, as I
see others have suggested, you could probably accomplish similar results by
compiling your screen with debug and running QUICK in debug mode, then setting a
breakpoint on the UPDATE procedure. When you run the screen and QUICK reaches
the UPDATE procedure you can then step through the verbs in the UPDATE procedure
and simply leave it "paused" at the most appropriate point while you then run
your QTP.</SPAN></FONT></DIV><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->

Quick screen. Does anyone know how I can put a pause in the screen to lock it
for long enough for my qtp process to find it is locked? I have tried doing
multiple FOR loops with the inner loop actually updating a file, but it still
runs too fast. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
