I am trying to write a pascal program using Turbo 4.0 . The program works fine
but I want the user not to be able to exit with a control break. Is there
any way I can cut the control break key off? Any help would be welcomed very
much.
Thanks in advance,
-Jason

This can do done quite easily. I wish I could remember the right syntax, but if you have a TP4 manual handy, It wouldn't be hard to find. There is a boolean variable in the DOS unit which when set to false, disables Ctrl+BREAK. I'm sorry I cannot remember the variable name, but I am sure that someone else on the net will be able to. I will look it up soon and repost if no one else does. Scott snuzs@trsvax.UUCP

Put this line as early as possible in the program:
CheckBreak := false;
This variable *is* documented in the manual!!
