One of the capabilities of the NightWatchman product from 1E is that it allows administrators to automate the closing of applications in a manner that properly closes unsaved documents and prevents data loss. To accomplish this, NightWatchman uses external scripts that correlate with the application that needs to be safely closed.
NightWatchman supports Microsoft Office products (Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Visio, Project, ...) out of the box. Any organization that implements NightWatchman will need to develop customized scripts that NightWatchman can use to support other applications that are not supported out of the box.
For those organizations that are currently using the NightWatchman product, I am wondering if you'd be interested in a location where everyone can post custom scripts for sharing with the community. This online location can then serve as a repository where one can search to determine if a custom script may already exist for a product that must be supported.
Let me know by sending me an email.
