Timing out of quick

Certainly if the process is killed, that's it. When the user is timed out
(and I assume you mean at a prompt), QUICK will not do any more input
processing and will not call subscreens. So I suspect you're out of luck for
the subscreen. However, it should process most other verbs as specified as
long as they're not for display i/o.

Hi Everyone,

I have a problem with quick timing out on Powerhouse 710G1 based on
Openvms V7.2-1 or OpenvmsV7.1.

I have a screen with an exit procedure, which is used to run another
screen.  The other screen is then used to reset a flag to show the user
is running invoices. 
e.g.

Procedure EXIT
Begin
        Run Screen NFDS0910A
End

Screen NFDS0910A nomode noaction

File INV-CONTROL designer
  Access  VIA NF-LINK USING ("NF")

Procedure INITIALIZE
Begin
        lock INV-CONTROL
        get INV-CONTROL
        let INVOICE-RUNNING of INV-CONTROL = "N"
        put INV-CONTROL reset
        unlock INV-CONTROL
        return
END

However if the user times out or their process is stopped while they are
in the first screen it does not carry out the exit procedure.  I think
they are logged out instantly, is there anyway of doing commands before
they are logged out?
