I always used "launch" to startup an app in windows10.
I made a copy of my W10 app to Linux.
But then it did not work, so I looked in the Dictionary, where it says: To work with Unix "use the shell function instead"
I had never used "launch document"
Now it works fine. Problem solved, thanks.

Runtime problem in MacOS Catalina
My client who runs an app on his Mac has updated his OS to Catalina. Now she gets a message at startup: "This app needs to be updated by the developer to be able to work with this version of MacOS. So I installed LC 9.5.1 and made a new runtime, but the message still comes up. What do I have to do? ...

Re: Loading failure at launch
I am practically only using globals. What use is it to declare locals anyway, since they always work without declaration? I have checked all my tSQL strings. If there would be a variable missing, it would'nt work at all. I have already sorted out that maybe a variable is not yet declared the first t...

Re: Loading failure at launch
Hi Klaus, I don't understand fully. In the "openStack" script there is already a lot of db_stuff, because a lot of data from the database is loaded into the main screen. But then when I do an action for a new insert, I open a substack with all possible options to choose, which are all loaded from th...

Loading failure at launch
I have the following problem: When my runtime startsup, everything seems to be ok. But when I do a specific action on the mysql database, insert and delete, then that action is not performed properly. When I do it the second time, there is no problem, insert and delete work as programmed. So I have ...

LC 9.5 crashing very often
Every time I have a little bug in my code and want to test it, it often happens that LC 9.5 crashes in W10. Is this a new feature in LC 9.5 to make you more alert to save more regularly? Or is it a bug. Its quite annoying to save after every little change in the code, because it costs e few minutes ...

Re: What is the opposite of launch?
Hi dunbarx,
That won't work, because the close proces command is only applicable to files who were opened by the "open process" command and that's only for background processing data.
thanks anyway,
Rob

What is the opposite of launch?
I manage a number of LC Runtimes from one dashboard (also Runtime) with the launch command.
That works perfect.
But now I also want to close the runtimes from that same Dashboard.
How to do that?
Thanks
