I'm also interested knowng how to call one app from another without having
to quit the first one.
in my app, I need to check for known databases and if they are not there, to
create them or clear them. these dbs are created by another app which has to
be executed first and separately. I would like to integrate both apps by
lauching the first app and then continue on my merry way.

Thanks but I didn't understand very good. I plan to use adobe reader
for palm, have you ever attempted to invoke this application or has

fluent with Palm terms so far and I prefer explanations with sample
code 'cause there's no ambiguities.
Thanks again and regards,
