kanaida Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Jun 18, 2014 #4 I tried using the async streams library. It brings up the wait/close dialog. Is there a way to make it not come up during long running operations? It needs to write for a long period of time. A database would not be suitable as it's a new format. Upvote 0
