Greetings everyone,

Is there a way to have workflow halt the closing of the
windows tool?

When our workers start in the morning they open a display-only
control panel.  This opens an “Hours Worked” form, into which
they record their begin time.  When they leave in the evening
they close the control panel.  This re-opens the same “Hours
Worked” entry so they can enter their quitting time.  BUT if
instead of closing the control panel, they just close the user
tool, the Hours Worked entry never gets filled out and we
don’t know when they quit.

The workflow log shows the Hours Worked entry opening, but it
doesn’t stay open long enough to even be seen.  I tried having
the Hours Worked form run a “SET-CHANGE-FLAG 1” process,
hoping that I would get a message saying “Your changes have
not been saved. . . “ but I didn’t.  That is an ugly solution
anyway.

What I would like is a process that stops the wut from
closing, and allows the Hours Worked entry to display.  Is
this possible?
