Support : DialogLink : Online Help : LOGOFF HOLD

LOGOFF HOLD

Abbreviation: None
Command Format: LOGOFF HOLD
LOG OFF HOLD
Aliases: BYE HOLD, DISC HOLD, LOG HOLD, LOGOUT HOLD, OFF HOLD, QUIT HOLD, STOP HOLD

Use LOGOFF HOLD to interrupt a search and disconnect from Dialog without losing the sets you have created since your last BEGIN command. LOGOFF HOLD produces a cost estimate and creates a holding session. A message displays, giving the time the holding session started and instructions to enter a command to reestablish the session. The workspace (representing your connection to a database and the sets created there) is held for approximately 30 minutes. Note that at the bottom of the screen, the Status Indicator records the holding time.

Within this 30-minute period, you can reconnect to your search by entering a command, such as DISPLAY SETS (DS) to review the sets created prior to the LOGOFF HOLD.

Note: A reconnect places you in the same database and at the same point in your search as when you entered the LOGOFF HOLD. To continue in this search, do not enter a BEGIN command because this will erase all existing sets. DISPLAY SETS is recommended to review your sets before continuing with your search.
