If you want to store the command as text, then you'll a command interpretor in your application. It would read the record, discover that it contains the command "WinDrawLine", and then actually call WinDrawLine. This is quite do-able, but would get tedious if you are intending to support the whole API... :-) Also you would probably store then command in a more easily parsed format - maybe storing the trap number, followed by the params - this would let you forget about delimeters because, based on the command, you would know the size of the parameters following.
If you are looking at the database holding more complex "code" then you might want to look into shared libraries. Gavin.
