Shawn: There's a program on the "wiki" that allows you to execute BASIC code from a tcl line.
http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?BPTest This is an extremely useful program and will do exactly what you want, and a bunch of other things as well. It was originally written for UniData, then for UniVerse, then for D3. So an example would be: :BPTEST Value1 = "Hello" ; Value2 = "There." ; CALL subr.name (Value1, Value2) ; END Hope this helps.
