Description mimnagh 2004-02-02 20:56:06 UTC 
If I process a large file with the tool it can
take a to complete the "Resolve Identifiers"
stage. A message displays "Please Wait". However
if I'm impatient and press the "Finish" button The
tool crashes ( a real pain if I'm in the middle of
processing a lot of files) with this Exception:

Annotation: Exception occurred in Request Processor

Comment 1 mimnagh 2004-02-02 21:02:34 UTC 
I think the obvious solution is to disable the "Next" and "Finish"
buttons while the "Please Wait" message is displayed. This should
protect against my itchy trigger finger.

Comment 2 Chris Ledantec 2004-02-03 09:53:56 UTC 
agreed. buttons should be disabled while the action is finished. if it's an action that 
should be or could be cancled it a secondary dialog with a status bar and cancel 
button should be considered as well.
Comment 3 psuk 2004-02-29 01:43:27 UTC 
Import Management tool should be replaced by Autoimport functionality
and tasklist integration in promoD.
No plan to touch that part for NB36.
Comment 4 psuk 2004-06-22 18:05:38 UTC 
IMT was replaced, closing as WONTFIX.
