Hello Tom,
Thanks for replying to our post.
Yes, we have both V9 and OE10 installed and the very simple test program does run externally to Syteline. We'll try setting propath and other envir var's within the cmd/bat file, but it seems like Syteline isn't even attempting to run the cmd/bat file. We mod'd it to only do 'echo "in the bat file"' and 'sleep 5', but can't get that to run. We were expecting a dos window with the message. We'll try it some more and introduce the env var's. We're using "Operating System" as the Menu Action but have tried others. Perhaps we need to start fresh and be sure we've tried all combinations of menu action and commands. Thanks again for your help and please let us know if these new clues give you any more hints for us. Thanks, Jim
