What do I have to do for you to get a prime rib dinner and a round at the next R:Gathering?

Best, Bruce

WOW !!! Just wanted to say thanks again as this is exactly what I wanted, and it works perfect. Never had to use a Launch of a BAT file before. After I exicute the Launch of .the BAT command, I can then load the values into a table for further processing.
Works like a charm.   I owe you a lunch at the next R:Gathering.......
Thanks again

Jim

Absolutely! What you want to do is create a batch file (.BAT) that has your DIR command and you "LAUNCH" the .BAT file from within RBase. Either have the batch file permanently there or you can create the batch file on the fly if you want it dynamic

Subject: [RBASE-L] - DOS command line prompt

Hello, group:

I have an application in which I need to find the names of some CSV payment files. The payment files are composed of the word 'PAYMENTS_' followed by the date in 'YYYYMMDD format. ie. 'PAYMENTS_20220302.CSV', or 'PAYMENTS_20220310.CSV'. I have been playing around with the DIR command from a Command prompt., which produces the names of needed files.

When using the following command in a command prompt, (dir payments_* /B >myfile), it puts the names of the payments file into a file called 'myfile', which is exactly what I need..

The question: Is their any way that this dos command can be executed within a RBase program , such as ZIP, Launch, ??????? ?
Ver RBGX5E

Thanks for any input.
