Mike,

Would (CVAL('CONNECTIONS')) help?

(CVAL('CONNECTIONS'))
Returns the number of users currently connected to the current database or 0 if not connected. In the event of a non-graceful disconnect R:BASE will not be able to decrement the connections count. This can occur if the network session terminates unexpectedly, or if the users operating system crashes. If this happens the count will be inaccurate until all users disconnect from the database. This works because the last session of R:BASE will be able to tell that NO users are connected and will reset the count to zero. Unfortunately, due to file system limitations, R:BASE is only able to tell if a database is open by any users or not at all, and is not able to tell, except by this count, how many users are connected

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak

Good morning:

Is there a way to determine the operating condition that R:BASE programs are running in? I didn't see a CVAL function that would match what I'm thinking of.

For example, I have a set of 300+ programs that run daily in a set sequence over a 3-hour time period. For various reasons any of these programs may need to be run individually from the R>.

For example at the R>:  RUN SuchAndSuch.RMD

There are situations where it would helpful to be able to determine whether the program was launched separately with the RUN command vs. running in a sequence of programs.

Something like:

IF (CVAL("Standalone")) = 1 THEN

Do something

ELSE

Do something else

ENDIF

Is there something already in place that would let me test for this situation?

If not I might be contacting the Dream Team soon.

Thanks for sharing any thoughts or suggestions.
