Thank you for the response below from a different thread, Gintaras. I tried using "opt keysync 1", however, since delays and hung windows are part of the normal day to day operation of the application I am scripting over, it is important to have QM wait for the window to become unhung. Sometimes it unhangs in time for normal resumption of QM function but othertimes it causes a permanent hang (the application's fault, not really QM - QM script just is the last thing that pushes it over the edge)
Anyway, since most of the time, it gets out of hung state and continues normally, is there any way to hide the message box "Waiting while the window is hung" from the user. It will deprive the user of the ability to Abort, cancel, but usually this doesn't work to save things anyway. I just want to hide the inner workings of the scripting solution from the general user.
Thanks!,
Stuart

key
outp, str.setsel
str.getsel
These functions send keys to the active window. If the window is hung, the keys would be lost. These functions detect hung window, then show the dialog and wait. To disable it, try opt keysync 1.[/quote]
