Our Warehouse Management System (WMS) uses MS SQL 6.5 as back-end. The basic system is a normal Widows GUI. However, the receiving screen appears to be a DOS command screen that is compiled to a EXE and runs all sorts of stored procedures on the server. I can launch this DOS screen(exe) from within my FoxPro code without any problems but it opens up in a separate DOS window as you would expect. However, I would like to force the DOS window to be locked inside a FoxPro form/window. In other words if you move the FoxPro form/window the DOS screen would move with the form. Has anyone ever done anything like this or does anyone know if it is even possible?

Thanks,

Robert Wright
