I had thought of 'passing parameters' by creating a file sitting on that person's c:\ drive that the .rmd file could load into a temporary table to determine what ID# to print the report for. But I can't get it to work, especially when passing a parameter. When I try: zip c:\rbos\rbdos65\rbase65.exe it does attempt to load the program, but I get 'Insufficient memory to load protected mode R:base'. If I try to pass in a parameter then I get 'program not found', I'm assuming because of the space. I tried enclosing with quotes and I get the same error: zip 'c:\rbos\rbdos65\rbase65.exe test.klt' Karen >This can be done. You could either have a static RMD file that does nothing but run that report. If you need to change it all the time then you could write the RMD file in code just before launching it. When you start R:Base you can specify the startup file to use. Just put all the code necessary to make your connection and set up an variables and print the report in the RMD file. Then use it as the startup file in R:Base. Zip out and start R:Base using Rbase65.exe SREPORT.RMD You can also end it with the EXIT command and it will dump you out of the DOS R:Base and put you back into the Win version. <
