Thanks for the lead, actually an OSF file will use AWonl32.exe but I didn't even think about running a different exe till I read your reply. I would like to thank others that replied to this cry for help, excellent ideas that may be able to apply to other problems (which I have no shortage of these days).

>>>I can double click on an OSF file which will lauch dialer and run script. When I try to run this command from VFP6.0 sp6 I get a RUN command failed message. Anyone running PCAnywhere scripts from VFP? How? I found nothing either Symantec or M$ lack of kb.
