He has written a user exit which is called from an iap form. This exit in turn forks and execs another process (for print spooling or some such like activity). The problem is he cannot exit the form (gracefully) as long as this process is still alive. Anyone out there got any bright ideas why this happens and possible ways around it ? Thanks in advance ...
