Thanks for your help here. I reas the bug report, but I am not quite sure what to make of it and what the solution is.
In my case the user enters username/password and then I show a progress monitor. When the user backs out or goes to home then I still want to display the result, at least when an error occurred. How is this to be accomplished? Can I somehow find out beforehand if I will run in this error and then use some other mean, say a toast, to at least notify the user that not all is good?
