I have a command button on a form that starts running another application (.EXE) when pressed and passes two parameters to the application from the starting/currently running application.

I used to use a DO \form\mydir\myform cparm1, cparm2 and that worked fine, but I had to switch to a DO \programs\both\myexe cparm1, cparm2 instead.

Do I need to have .EXE after DO \programs\both\myexe.exe cparm1, cparm2 command. It's not executing my second application or I have another problem because I never see the second application's form appear. It just sits there.

This is probably an easy one, but I have never tried this before. Thanks in advance for your help.
