Hi Alex,

I have a prg, usetable, which takes the following parameters:

LPARAMETERS tcTable, tcAlias, tcDir, tlExclusive, tnDSID, tlNoUpdate, tlLoud, tlUseDD

There is no execscript or macroing involved, for the reasons others have cited.

Mine is geared toward my particular usage requirements, but you get the idea.

hth,

Hank
