I have a business system developed in CA-Clipper.
There are two applications which, as Clipper not is a multithread, are
running in two windows (as Prompt of DOS).
One program (receiver) work in a "minimize window" and receives data by
COM2, call the function Time() of system and input a record in a database,
with the actual date and time.
In other window (active in fullscreen), the main program catch these record
of the shared database and show to user, with the date and time from file,
recorded by receiver program.
But, the time from receive program are crazy, late, generating troubles to
the informations.
How can solve these BIG BUG to these "better OS" ????
