>Does anyone know is there's a way to pass parameters to the startup program in an .exe through the Config file or another file? I'm trying to figure out a way to allow users to have two icons on their desktop, one of which would run the application with test data and the other would run the application with live data. I was hoping to do this by specifying a different config.fpw file in the Windows icon for one of them, but couldn't get it to work. I tried using _startup and command = do start.prg with
but it seems that the .exe just ignores those lines in the config.fpw

Sylvia,
You could set two different configs yet and call them with :
myprog -Cconfig1.fpw
myprog -Cconfig2.fpw
Config1.fpw
path=mytestdata
Config2.fpw
path=myrealdata
