No, not possible from OPL. It is possible to call another application that resets the phone though. If you use SyRunExe& on the attached Symbian executable, the Communicator will reboot (at least 9210, don't know about 9500). A warning though: running Reboot.exe will instantly reboot the 9210, all changes to files open in other programs are lost.

Hope this helps.

I have the following code now and I get an error like: The string is too long !
Whats this ?

Proc reboot:
local file$(9)
file$="(REBOOT.EXE"😉
SyRunExe&😞file$)
ENDAPP

Count the characters used in file$. I count 10, one more than 9 😊
Also I think you have to specify the full path to REBOOT.EXE.
