Simon
you need the Run Appliaction Statement
Purpose
Runs a MapBasic application or adds a MapInfo workspace.
Syntax
Run Application file
file is the name of an application file or a workspace file
Description
The Run Application statement runs a MapBasic application or loads a MapInfo
workspace.
By issuing a Run Application statement, one MapBasic application can run
another application. To do so, the file parameter must represent the name of
a compiled application file. The Run Application statement cannot run an
uncompiled application.
To halt an application launched by the Run Application statement, use the
Terminate Application statement.
Example
The following statement runs the MapBasic application, REPORT.MBX:
Run Application "C:\MAPBASIC\APP\REPORT.MBX"
The following statement loads the workspace, Parcels.wor:
Run Application "Parcels.wor"
