may be u can stop for 10 seconds and continue...

call function 'RZL_SLEEP'
       exporting
            seconds        = 10
       exceptions
            argument_error = 1
            others         = 2.

yes., it works with SYNCHRONOUS = 'X'.

But when I upgraded my machine to Windows vista (IE7) it did not work?? any idea?

I had the same problem like Adel when calling the browser via cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute().

On my old school XP machine the synchronous start is doing well, but not on my colleagues W7 64 machines.

I used a registrey key to get - in my case - the path to the Internet Explorer.

(htmlfile\shell\open\command)

On W7/64Bit this key contains the path to the 32 bit Binary:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE

If I start this application it's not synchronous, if i hard-code the path 64 bit binary

(C:\Program File\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE) the application runs synchronous.

A pragmatic programmer could replace the ' (x86)' in the path, which should work on most Windows platforms
