Hi, Try either: ------------------------- integer return_code return_code = system_exec(runfile, 2) -- instead of system(runfile, 2) ------------------------- or -------------- runfile = "start " & thisdir & Progdata[Path] --instead of runfile = thisdir & Progdata[Path] -------------- system() needs a command (like start, copy, delete, etc.) system_exec() only runs .exe and .com (and maybe .bat, anybody know for sure?) -=Cassidy=- Tony Steward wrote: > Hi All, > I am attempting to write a simple Autoexecute menu for my CDR's.
