My loader also is a prg which calls Getfile() and seems to work in the same way. If yours doesn't work why not have a form which display suitable instructions, a text box to hold the filename, a Browse button which has the Getfile() command and an OK button which checks that a file has been selected before it will allow the program to proceed?
