Block Step Type for Dynamic Parallel Processing with End

[Ramki Maley]

Hi Jake,

I tried both "P Par for each" and "S For each" based on a multiline 
container element. Within the block a main container (note: not local 
block) element (say Flag) is set to 'Y' based on a user decision.  The 
end condition for block is 'Flag =  Y'.
When the condition is met, the incomplete parallel branches are not 
logically deleted. In case of Block type 'S' the next block is started 
even after the condition is met.

Thanks,
Ramki.
