The normal thing to do would be to have the Scripting language do the request, depending on the result from the stored procedure. Not having done a LAUNCH from a SP, I will take it from Emmitt that it is permissible. I take it the following is in the SP? SET VAR vLaunch = 'LAUNCH request.cmd' &vLaunch If it is, I don't see how you get a value into vLaunch as LAUNCH doesn't have a mechanism to return a variable. Is request.cmd a dos batch file or an RBase command file? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Cimicato" <[email protected]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 19, 2010 3:35 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Oterro Launching cmd.com > ok...well.....I built an IVR system that uses ODBC to connect to the RBase > database using the Oterro 3.5 driver.
