Thanks, Char(39) got the wait to work as in: SET VAR vchar = ((CHAR(039))) SET VAR vlaunch TEXT = ('LAUNCH ' + .vchar +.vlfnfilename1 + ' ||W' + .vchar) So I can go back to using temp tables. I will try this with the two exes Runh.exe Blat.exe I am trying to pass with LAUNCH or ZIP but: Back to my original question. Does anyone know if ZIP is supported in the compiled version? Thanks for any reply but, I am lake bound for the weekend ASAP.

Try using (char(039)) instead or the char # you need. In setting the var. I had better luck and better returns. Then call it with &var_name. I figured there was a reason Razzak was doing it in some of his examples and I tried it. I now tend to use more 75-25 of the time.

Thanks for the tip. I will play with it too. I have been searching around for a command line e-mail program that works.

Dan, RunH.exe - John Minyo pointed me towards http://helpdesk.kixtart.org/ then scroll down. It is a freeware program. >have you tried these: >LAUNCH runh|.vcmd|W Result in full version “Windows cannot find ‘.vcmd’.” >LAUNCH runh|&vcmd|W Result in full version “Windows cannot find ‘&vcmd’.” set var vcommand text = ('LAUNCH runh|' + .vcmd + '|W') --puts the command into a variable &vcommand --runs the command Result in full version: a quick flash on the taskbar, but no email or update to the log of emails sent. I have tried every combination of launch with and without the “W” I could come up with including yours above. That’s why I started trying ZIP which works full version, doesn’t work compiled version. I think it is because I have a program “Runh.exe” calling another program “Blat.exe” passing a large number of parameters for Blat.exe. Too complex for launch? Zip does it great in the full version. Dan Goldberg PS is that Runh program available?? It would like it if is.

In the full version of R:Base 7.6 for Windows “ZIP runh .vcmd “ works exactly like I want, but not in my compiled version. Is ZIP supported in the compiler? I haven’t been able to get launch to work correctly for this yet. Runh.exe runs a file in the background (Thanks John) I’m trying to use BLAT.exe and it’s parameters in a variable to send email from my Citrix server directly using SMTP instead of setting up 50 email clients on the Citrix server (one for each user now and add one for each in the future) Example of vcmd blat.exe -f [email protected] -to [email protected] -subject "CRM Communication METRO AVIATION, INC. 48025 Record# 192 AT8 Tami / Greg " -server smtpout.xxxxx.net -bodyf \elec\crm_email\6.txt -u [email protected] -pw xxxxx -log \elec\crm_email\CRM_Log.txt Kenny Camp
