One other way to bring up task manager is to press CTRL-ALT-END
while your remote desktop is the active window. This will send a
CTRL-ALT-DELETE to the remote system and allow you to bring up task manager.

Patti: You should be able to do this. Remote Desktop back into that computer.
Depending on the operating system of the computer you are dialing into, you
can click on Start / Run and type in "taskmgr". That brings up task manager
for THAT computer, not for your computer. There you should see the RBase
session which you can then close.

When I tried Task Mgr on my computer, it only thought Remote Dsktop was running.
Do you mean I have to find the PC that I'm emulating? I was afraid of that. I
guess I have to wait until our hardware guy gets back to do that.
Rbase for Dos used to have a way to disconnect users from one location. I was
hoping Rbase for Windows did the same.
Thank you very much,
Patti

Patty,
Rebooting your computer will not do anything since R:Baseie running on the
remote server.
This is what you need to do:
Access the server via RDP like you normally do.
On the Windows screen on the remote machine right click on the bottom bar and
when the windows pops up select “Start Task Manager”
On the main screen of the task manager under the “Applications” tab you might
or might not see you application.
If you see your application, highlight it and click the “end Task” button
If you don’t see the application, click on the “Processes” tab at the top and
then look for RGB95_64***.*** or something along these lines, depending on your
version.
Highlight he process and then click the “end process” button.
Hopefully this will kill the hung process and get you back to normal.

Hi,
We always use Rbas 9.5 extreme, using Remote Desktop, so that we can use one
database regardless of our physical location.
Today when I was finished, all modules where closed and I typed in "Exit" at
the R> prompt. It hung. After about 3 minutes, I disconnected my Remote
desktop connection. When I connected again, Rbase was still running,
minimized. But it won't maximize at all. Neither right nor left click do
anything to it.
I called up task manager, and it only thought Remote Desktop was running. So I
tried halting it that way. No dice.
I rebooted the computer. When I went back into remote desktop, it was no
different. I ran another instance of Rbase and listed the number of connected
users. I was the only one on, so I was hoping it would say "1", but it said
"2." So it really thinks I'm actively using Rbase with that "hung" connection.
Our hardware guy is out on funeral leave. I have no idea how to terminate that
instance of Rbase. Is there anyway I can do it? Does the whole server have to
be shut down?
I always have crazy problems.
Patti
