Problem:

Is there a way of removing the "Application Completed" dialog box.

Resolution:

There are three ways to "remove" the application completed message box:

1) You can run/LINK your programs as a character application rather than graphical.

2) You can clear the screen prior to the STOP RUN i.e.

   display spaces at 0101.

3) On the "Settings" option of the application window you can check "Disable

   Termination Prompt".

The message box is created so that a user could read any information on the screen prior to the application completing and the window disappearing.

Is there a solution for removing the "Application Complete" that everyone but me sees or did people give up after a few years?  Marking the application as "Console Based" rather than graphic simply swaps the dialog box for the black console box.  I cannot find the "Settings option of the application window" anywhere and I have no idea what "clear the screen prior to STOP RUN" refers to.
