Jeff, I'm a little late on this, but we go to DOS and type: kill pid e.g. kill 7068 It takes a few seconds, but has never failed.
The pid still shows on our LISTU.WHO program, but typing LO pid takes it off.

It is a major headache when we are at the max number of pooled connections and so the ones we want to stop and start cannot start because udt is still hanging onto the licence. Basically the site is down for 5 mins which is a long time when you are trying to achieve 99.9% uptime !! Would udkill be beneficial here - or is there a way to tell udt to tidy up its licence usage ??

He provided me with a link to a PickWiki entry at http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GetKey which was almost perfect for my needs. It was written for Universe but adapting it to Unidata was fairly easy. I'm not able to recognize all the function keys, cursor keys, and even the stand alone ESC key. To modify his GetKey program, here's what I did to get it to run in Unidata 6.1: 1. Uppercase all code lines. (I left comments mixed case.) 2. Shorten the labeled common block name to 7 characters. 3. Change all KEYIN() to IN() commands. 4. Change NAP command to a small SYSTEM(12) timing loop. 5. Change NOT(ASSIGNED(...)) to UNASSIGNED(...) command. It's a self contained subroutine that is called with a single variable which is for the returning key value. It's even seems to stay accurate if you hold down a key (like the ESC key) for too long and it starts to auto repeat itself. Thanks, again, Keith and everyone else for your help!
