Thanks Razzak, but I'm not sure it's going to be the help Thom is
looking for.
He has an EXE he wants to launch. That EXE is just a wrapper for
the XMLHTTP request object to a remote server running PHP.
The EXE is designed to collect a return value from the remote server
and beyond that I don't know how the EXE passes the return value
back to the SP he uses to call the EXE.
Since it worked in 7.6, but didn't work in the Oterro session, I
thought he had possibly AV or something on that machine that
prevented the EXE from running (like spawning a process from a virus).

OK. 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?

ok...well.....I built an IVR system that uses ODBC to connect to
the
RBase
database using the Oterro 3.5 driver. The IVR works great
reading and
writing to the Rbase database through Oterro ODBC driver and
executes the
stored procedure from a trigger just dandy. Its the stored
procedure
executed by Oterro that needs to launch a DOS command file that
runs
cURL.exe.
I don't know what language the IVR system was written in. My IVR
scripts
are called Callmaster Basic. Its an interpreted scripting
language for
that IVR system (kinda like rbase command files are interpreted by
Rbase).
So its not compiled Oterro Dll's. We are using the Oterro ODBC
driver to
get to the database.
I have even tried to use the Rbase 7.6 ODBC driver for the IVR
and that
works fine too. Its the launch command in the stored procedure
that won't
run. Maybe its my syntax for the launch command in the stored
procedure.
SET VAR vLaunch = 'LAUNCH request.cmd'
&vLaunch

Also Thom, you haven't said what programming language you are
using for
the front end to Oterro, or is the Oterro instance on the
server being
accessed by your RBase sessions on the Lan and the Wan?

Can Oterro 3.5 running a stored procedure "launch" a command
line
process .bat or .cmd file? I can get it to work in my local
RBase 7.6
environment but Oterro does not seem to execute the launch.
Oterro
executes the stored procedure/trigger nicely it but it doesn't
execute
the "launch test.bat" DOS command file that I need the stored
procedure
to run.
Will Oterro execute a UDF if I convert the batch file to a
UDF of some
sort?
Any comments are welcome.
Thanx
Thom
