I am trying to develop a program for keeping records of individual student
> in respective folder. I have a database table in which the ID and Name

>SELE A && student
> INDEX ON CODE TO mStudT
> SEEK mStudentID
> IF FOUND()
> bn=name
> bn=allt(bn)
> @12,60 SAY ALLT(NAME)
> ENDIF
> CH=0
.............
> READ
>
> IF CH=1
>
> *--------------
> BN="c:\"+allt(BN)
> if !directory(BN)
> !MD &BN
> # # [see note below]
> !cd &bn
> DO P1
> ELSE
>
> WAIT WINDOW "ALREADY EXISTS !PRESS [E]NTER TO CONTINUE"
> CLOSE ALL
> !cd &bn
> DO P12
> endif

SELECT student
INDEX ON CODE TO mStudT
SEEK mStudentID
IF FOUND()
m.bn = ALLTRIM(name)
@12,60 SAY m.bn
ENDIF

IF ...

DO (p01_prog)
ELSE

DO (p12_prog)
ENDIF
