ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Progress Indicator - Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Help for progress status window
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1. Progress Status Window - Main Window Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
This status window will display activities which occur while the XXXXXXX
software is running. Progress status is grouped and divided into categories.
An example of a category is 'Client Installation'. Once an activity has
started, its associated progress will continue to display until that activity
has completed. Once completed, the progress control will be deleted.
If a problem occurred while performing an activity, the activity control will
halt and you will be allowed to delete it. When this occurs a 'Confirm' button
will enable allowing the removal of the control representing the activity. You
will only be allowed to remove a control by pressing its associated 'Confirm'
button.
The 'Confirm' button could activate for the following reasons:
o The activity was unable to complete
o The communication between the activity and the progress server has failed.
o The program managing the activity had a catrostrophic failure
Note: Remember, that a control will automatically delete if the activity that
it represents completes in its entirety.
ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2. Close Button - Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ

their correct progress. If the 'Close' button is disabled, you are not allowed
to hide this window. You may, however, minimize the window by pressing the
minimize button in the upper right hand corner of the Progress Status Window.
