CapeSoft MessageBox - how/when do you use it in NTWS?

Hi all,
Do you have some experience with CapeSoft MessageBox in a NetTalk WebServer app?
When do you use it?
Do you have some tips and tricks?
I have read that using the Clarion MESSAGE() function will result in hanging the server program.
I would like to hear your experience or some tips and tricks you use.
Thanks and best regards
Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,
I use it to capture messages to a log file.
That means if an error or some obscure message pops up on the server this could hang the server until you click to close the message.
I have set my messagebox to only display a message for 1 second, log it to a txt file and close.
This way my NT server just keeps on working.
Hope this helps.
Regards

Thanks Johan,
And do you also show the content of this txt file in your web app, for example when you login as administrator, you can see the content?
Just curious: why haven't you chosen for a tps file? Is txt out-of-the-box?
Best regards

Hi Jeffrey,
No, I don't need the user to see the messages.
They are only for my own use in case there is an error with my NTWS.
TXT was the quickest to get it working.
However I am sure you can do it with TPS as well and then have a NTWS browse to show you the contents.
