As per the on-line manual.

This is for times when filePro is processing under the hood and is a way 
to let the user know filePro is doing something and not ready for use. 
Think of it when scanning millions of records with a browse lookup with 
drop processing. A user might think the process is frozen or crashed if 
nothing is on the screen showing that it is working. The important thing 
about this new command would be that the instant filepro is waiting 
again for any keystroke, the show working display must come down 
automatically as there is no way for the programmer to know when to take 
it down in a browse lookup situation.
