Dear,

A welcome to this board.

First some comment.
  • "let $hl = $hl + 1" is the right way of assigning. correct will be "$hl = $hl + 1".
    LET is an undefined element which will abort your script.
  • specify InGroup("Accounting") <> 0 instead of InGroup("Accounting").
    our version will work for kixtart releases.
  • specifies 'line style' in your BOX function call as string.
    BOX (0,0,24,79,"GRID") ; 'background grid'
    BOX (3,7,6,76,"") ; 'shadow' of the box
    BOX (2,6,5,75,"FULL")
    BOX (8,23,18,61,"") ; 'shadow' of the box
    BOX (7,22,17,60,FULL)
  • keep your SLEEP time low. everybody can read information with 3-5 seconds.
  • we replace USE L: \\PDC\PUBLIC with USE L: "\\PDC\PUBLIC"
Our version:
