Re: "WAIT" command?!

That sounds like Acucobol - is it?

Generally you have your grid in a screen section entry and you use a PERFORM
UNTIL loop to continually accept the screen until some event occurs where
you want to exit the program. After your event handler code ends, the
screen gets accepted again so the program doesn't end. It's a way of
simulating event driven code within Cobol.

You'd have to post an example of your code for anything more specific or
look at the sample grid program(s) that come with the compiler.

Maybe ACCEPT?

Well, maybe I have to be more specific. I have a GRID, and I want to
evaluate the inputs. So after some code lines the evaluation is over and
the program should wait until the next insertion in the GRID. but if I use
ACCEPT the event-handler for the cell does not start anymore, the program
stops because it is the end of the code. how can i make it that the
event-handler is called again?
