Windows 7 yield while taskexists

[hawk1996]

Hi, has anyone else ran into this problem using Procomm scripts on Windows 7? I have a script that runs a batch file to get the username of the pc, to do this I run the below script, I have a while taskexists yield so the script will wait until the batch file complets before moving on. This works really well in XP, but when I switched to Windows 7 it takes a long time (about a minute or longer) for the script to continue. Long after the batch file has completed.

Thanks,

PROC GET_USER_NAME
STRING GETPCUSERNAMEBAT="Y:\PM\OSS\Aspect\PCUSERNAMEBAT.BAT"
IF NOT FOPEN 1 GETPCUSERNAMEBAT CREATE TEXT
ERRORMSG "UNABLE TO OPEN OR CREATE %s" GETPCUSERNAMEBAT
ENDIF

FPUTS 1 "C:"
FPUTS 1 "CD\"
FPUTS 1 "SET > C:\PERSONAL\PCUSERNAME.TXT"
FFLUSH 1
FCLOSE 1

RUN GETPCUSERNAMEBAT HIDDEN PCUSER
WHILE TASKEXISTS PCUSER
YIELD
ENDWHILE

FOPEN 0 PCUSERNAME_TXT READ TEXT
WHILE NOT FEOF 0


FGETS 0 PCUSERNAMELINE
IF STRFIND PCUSERNAMELINE "USERNAME="
STREXTRACT PCUSERNAME PCUSERNAMELINE "=" 1
ENDIF
ENDWHILE
FCLOSE 0
DELFILE "C:\PERSONAL\PCUSERNAME.TXT"
;USERMSG "*%s*" PCUSERNAME
ENDPROC

I haven't had a chance to play with this yet, and can't think of the last time I ran a batch file from Procomm, but I did notice that the ASPECT help file said to use the dos command to run batch files instead of the run command.
