[RBASE-L] - Re: FEEDBACK

[Doug Hamilton]

Don't feel bad, Jan.  I had the same question yesterday in RBWin 7.6 and was going to post the question.  FEEDBACK is a great way to reassure the user that something really is working and there's no need to reboot but the window .  I thought CLS was primarily a DOS command but I'll add to my EEP now.

Boy, when you get the answer sometimes you realize how

dumb the question was!

Jan,

Use CLS command to clear the FEEDBACK window, programmatically.

Have fun!
