>Thanks Al. I have got a coammand prompt program which works fine. In eighties, I made a database browse program (brw.exe) using clipper where I used to type in BRW CUSTOMER at the dos command line and the program used to open customer.dbf in browse screen. Can this be done from Fox8 or Fox9??
Sure - as others have said, make a tiny MyBrowse.EXE like
LPARAMETERS TableName
USE TableName
BROWSE
then you can call it from a CMD window with
MyBrowse MyTable
Regards. Al
