Shibuya Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I know there's no such command as "ConsoleWaitNotActive", but is there anyway I can work around to make it possible? I have a program that activates the DOS console, which takes some time to close depending on the parameters issued to it. You can think of the program as a DOS based encrypter or decrypter as an example. I need to do other commands only after the program has completed its task. So far I've tried ProcessWait and WinWaitNotActive types of combinations, they don't work at all. Any suggestions?
