I am looking for a way for a desqview window to close another window, or
better yet, suspend it.
I am going to be running 2 BBS lines with the help of Desqview. The setup
that I have is that each BBS has a 50k or so program that monitors the comm
port (1 or 2). When a call is detected, the program calls another DesQview
window and runs the BBS. What I want to do is this: When the program gets
a caller, suspend the program checking the OTHER comm port, to prevent someone
from connecting on the other line, thereby swapping the 1st caller out!
Any help would be appriciated....

Please excuse the slight change of topic, but.. why not simply run two copies of the BBS software, one in each window, such that two users can access the BBS simultaneously ? Just my 2 cents, which ain't worth much. -- ___Mark S.
