Larry,
I've never found a way to suppress the window. Emmitt Dove Manager, DairyPak Business Systems Evergreen Packaging, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] (203) 643-8022 From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lawrence Lustig Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2008 9:39 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Silent LAUNCH command. I have an R:Base program which builds a batch file to perform some system level processing. I can LAUNCH the batch file, it works great. However, a DOS window flashes on the screen while the batch file operates. There's no output, so there's no need for the window or the flashing. Can anyone think of a clever way to launch a batch file "invisibly"? Failing that, does anyone (paging MikeB, paging MikeB, Mr. B please pick up the white courtesy phone) have the STDCALL worked out to do this directly through ShellExecEx? -- Larry
