Hi Naomi,

I'm not sure this will help, but I think there are several mistake here. And most important thing is you have to close the handle

*   nStartedProcessHandle = (((asc(subst(cProcessInfo,4,1))*256) + ;
*	asc(subst(cProcessInfo,3,1)))*256 + ;
*	asc(subst(cProcessInfo,2,1)))*256 + ;
*	asc(left(cProcessInfo,1))

   ** should be this
   nStartedProcessHandle = (((asc(subst(cProcessInfo,4,1))*256^3) + ;
	asc(subst(cProcessInfo,3,1)))*256^2 + ;
	asc(subst(cProcessInfo,2,1)))*256 + ;
	asc(left(cProcessInfo,1))

    ** Get Thread handle also
    ** Both handles must then be close using CloseHandle() API
    hThread = (((asc(subst(cProcessInfo,8,1))*256^3) + ;
	asc(subst(cProcessInfo,7,1)))*256^2 + ;
	asc(subst(cProcessInfo,6,1)))*256 + ;
	asc(left(cProcessInfo,5))

*   =WaitInpIdle(GetCurrProc(),cnINFINITE)

    * Wait for the idle of the new/child process not the idle of the current process
    WaitInpIdle( nStartedProcessHandle, cnINFINITE )

	do while WaitOnAppExit(nStartedProcessHandle, cnHalfASecond) = cnTimedOut

*	Give us an out in case the other app hangs - lets the user quit via
		if inkey() = 27
*	Still running but we aren't waiting - return a -1 as a warning
			uResult = -1
			exit
		endif

	enddo

    ** Process & Thread Handles must be close
    ** or else it will remains in the system
    Declare Long CloseHandle in Kernel32 Long hObject

    If (nStartedProcessHandle != 0)
       CloseHandle( nStartedProcessHandle )
    endif

    If (hThread != 0)
       CloseHandle( hThread )
    endif
