The main problem is<BR>that the UWL is designed to handle anything you throw at it - which it does<BR>quite well. The downside here is that it has to cater for the lowest common<BR>denominator and standardize on that. In this case it's a back-end/SAPGUI<BR>task which launches in a separate WinGUI window where all communication gets<BR>lost, therefore the UWL can never know when a task finishes. <BR><BR>Technically this doesn't happen anyway. The UWL doesn't 'know' because<BR>there's no transaction concept, the key difference to SBWP is that the
UWL<BR>*launches* a task. Thus it's the task that needs to signal to the UWL when<BR>it's done. In our case we built some task executions directly into the UWL<BR>so that it executed in it's own subframe, or else the BSP launched by the<BR>task would navigate the user back to the UWL upon completion. In other words<BR>the task does the refresh (sortof). Again, this was only possible because we<BR>developed both task and worklist using BSP. <BR><BR>Like I said: if you have a few months to spare....<BR><BR>Cheers, <BR>Mike<BR><BR><BR>> -----Original Message-----<BR>> From: <A href="mailto:sap-wug-bounces@mit.edu" ymailto="mailto:sap-wug-bounces@mit.edu">sap-wug-bounces@mit.edu</A> [mailto:<A href="mailto:sap-wug-bounces@mit.edu" ymailto="mailto:sap-wug-bounces@mit.edu">sap-wug-bounces@mit.edu</A>] On<BR>> Behalf Of <A href="mailto:Paul.Bakker@osr.treasury.qld.gov.au"
