No answer yet. I hope this function call exists, rather than just a bunch of in-line code. Then application writers could use the call periodically, to be sure the screen is "fresh and crisp". If this code is actually in-line, rather than a function, then I hope that Jonathan Leffler, or whoever is appropriate, will add *grouping this code into a 4GL-callable function* to the list of requested enhancements to 4GL.
