Sorry, we crossed emails.
I cut and pasted the below with the same results. Program fires, but does not seem to get the parameters correctly. I have to leave for the night, so hopefully tomorrow will bring better results!

I need to launch an external program with parameters. Here is my code: set var vLaunch = 'HTTPGET.exe' set var vParameters = '-0 "Test.dat" -r -S "*SRA" 192.168.0.83:1000' set var vLaunch = (.vLaunch & '|' & .vParameters & '|W') Launch .vLaunch It does not work. Are the double quotes allowed in the parameters? Any other thoughts? Thanks again, -Bob
