Hi Pat,

Did you try calling SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE with the _4D_OPTION_HIDE_CONSOLE 
option?  It works with normal batch windows... not sure about PowerShell 
windows.

RE: LEP - hide console?

2019-04-09 Thread Epperlein, Lutz (agendo) via 4D_Tech 
SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE("_4D_OPTION_HIDE_CONSOLE";"true")

And see:
https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.1/LAUNCH-EXTERNAL-PROCESS.301-4178683.en.html

9. To launch a command with the current directory and without displaying the 
console:

 SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE("_4D_OPTION_CURRENT_DIRECTORY";"C:\\4D_VCS")
 SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE("_4D_OPTION_HIDE_CONSOLE";"true")
 LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS("mycommand")

Regards
Lutz
