Well it's good to know my understanding is correct, so must be something 
else I'm not doing right.

Issue I have is that I am not receiving the &808C1 message.

I get the &808C3 when it has finished, but I also want the output that 
would usually be in the Task Window (if I was to manually run it, rather 
than run via Wimp_StartTask).
