Bill,
I use the AtomClock program to call and set my system clock. It also comes
with an Arexx file called "settime.rexx" which will automatically run
AtomClock once a month. The docs say if I have Arexx and WShell, to insert
it into my startup-sequence. I tried inserting it in my User-startup but
it won't run from the startup window (must only run from a WShell window).
If I run it from the WShell window, it works. I found if I have the
command "newwsh inplace" in my user-startup, the WShell window will run
the rest of the user-startup commands including "settime.rexx". The only
problem is that once the startup is done, the WShell window closes and I
am left without a shell window. I am going to try as you say and try to
solve this by doing a "newwhs from s:myshell" ("myshell containing the
"settime.rexx").
