Does EU have any way to launch another program, pass it a value(or 2), wait for it to finish and receive any return value(or 2)? I have been using this (subtask) in Theos for common things like an Inventory or customer lookup. These would be used by may programs but only one copy of the look-up program need be written. For example the inventory search subtask is used by about 35 programs. If I find a bug in it I only have to change it one place. If I included it in an EU program as a function, I would then have to compile(to C) all programs which use it. Not as convinent as a subtask..... does this make sense? How would you approach this in EU? ...george
