>I am trying to copy some files to specific directories and then lauch a windows based program. The program is an exe file. Any problems when I close launched windows program? Would appreciate any help. I have VFP 5.0 Thanks

RUN/N mywinapp.exe

runs windows application as completely separate process.

A Windows-based application executed with RUN /N or ! /N behaves the same way the application does when you open it through the Program Manager or the File Manager.
