Hi,

I'm trying to use the RUN command using variables into the command line. The external program is a DOS encryption application and I'm trying to do this in VFP5. The result is bad command or file name. If I don't do the substitution it works fine. For example

pgm = 'c:\ftp\des.exe' && this is taken from the .ini file
filename = 'file.txt' && this is passed into this procedure

RUN allt(pgm) + allt(filename)

Any suggestions or solutions

Thanks
