<<We're having a strange problem with the createprocess
intrinsic, and looking for tips. the process is:
                program A creates and copies some files, then schedules
another program with wait, waiting until it terminates before
continuing.
                when program B terminates, program A is not being
re-activated so that it can complete properly.>>


I think some code would help tremendously. However, it isn't clear how
you're re-activating the parent. To the best of my knowledge a parent
process that suspends itself while a child runs, either using item 10 of
CREATEPROCESS or an explicit SUSPEND(2) call, is not magically activated
by the system if the child terminates; the child needs to call
ACTIVATE(0) before it terminates.
