Don't know anything about MFG/PRO in particular ...

But, the error message tells it all: Progress can't find the parameter file you specified ( -pf ). You either need to include the directory where it is located in your PROPATH or you need to specify the path to it relative to a directory that is in your PROPATH.

And, you do have "CHAR" mode. As soon as you have the client/networking runtime installed with the full install option you will also get the _progres.exe in the bin directory beneath the Progress installation directory. AFAIK, there were V9 versions of Progress where it didn't come when you did a typical install.

I add the path after -pf "-pf C:\QADCLI\mfglang.pf",it is same , can not open mfglang.pf

I search all of disk, not program named _progres.exe, so ,I think I have no "CHAR mode"

Did you check whether the parameter file really exists in the directory you've specified and you have permission to read it?
