Thanks for the information.  I did the help setboot and looked at the /b
option.  My reading seems to indicate the /b option is the same as doing
an alt-ctl-del.  The system save outstanding buffers but it doesn't:
 
  (a) inform programs the system is coming down.  Hence, you lose unsaved
      data.  Programs don't have a chance to prompt the user for permission
      to save a changed state.
  (b) The Workplace Shell/Desktop doesn't have a chance to save outstanding
      (unsaved) status to its .INI files.
 
IMHO, setboot is not a shutdown facility when using the desktop menu shutdown
      as the shutdown definition.
