While using the TRACE command, you can simply close the TRACE by clicking on "Close File" button on the TRACE Toolbar. You can also control the TRACE ON/OFF command in an EEP using the following technique: Precede TRACE command with the DEBUG command to control the environment. By default the DEBUG is SET to OFF. If DEBUG is set to ON, the DEBUG TRACE will run; if it is set to OFF, the DEBUG TRACE will be ignored. By allowing DEBUG to be set to ON or OFF, DEBUG statements in command files or applications can be activated or deactivated. Here's how: (in your case) 01. Change the TRACE command line in your EEP to: DEBUG TRACE 02. At the R> prompt or in a command file, type: SET DEBUG ON 03. EDIT USING formname ... Notice the TRACE command is being executed accordingly. 04. At the R> prompt or in a command file, type: SET DEBUG OFF 05. EDIT USING formname ... Notice the TRACE command is ignored. Hope that helps! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
