thanks, may have to do it that way and I do have some code already that I have found, but I know there is a simple tool out there in a library format that I used to use that worked real good.

Is this Visual FoxPro? I think the key would be to add a timer object to your _VFP object that checks for the existence of that file and if it finds it run the app's shutdown method.

Been a long time. I'm back maintaining a foxpro system Back in the 90's I used a utility that would allow me to put a text file named shutdown.txt in the root folder and it would force all users out. Been googling and can't find it anymore. Any of you remember it?
Looking for a way to kick users out so I can reindex when necessary.
Thanks,
Virgil
