George,
Thank you for your helpful input. I realize that I can pass parameters to my APP and in my case I will probably do it via an array, since I have tons of parameters to pass. My only concern, so far, (since I have not implemented this APP) is how it will look. That is, when I have a bunch of windows open in my main application and one of the windows calls an APP program, will APP program "cover" all my main program windows with a new VFP main window. I guess I have to try and see.
