When you need to close a form from a timer, it is easies to manage from an
MDI form (which on your preference can run hidden or exposed) that contains
the timer. From that perch you can manipulate the other form using its'
ALIAS name.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Memory Usage out of hand
So, now that we have surmised that my memory issue is the use of IE, I
am trying to find a way to have the program close and reopen the form
each loop through.
Closewindow doesn't seem to be my answer. Anyone have any good ideas?
Problem:
I run an instance of R:base that opens just one form 'edit using
nextelshuttle'
The form has two objects, a clock and a web object that displays a city
map with all our technicians on it.
that form has a 6 minute timer to run an eep that refreshes data, imports
info to the database, after the eep, the web refreshes. (this is where the
memory loss is)
I was hoping a closewindow would work, but I cannot make it close the form
and restart a new form. I suspect though that I would need to close that
whole instance of R:base to free up the memory.
Thoughts?
