API is accessable, but you have to use REGFN and CALLFN and it isn't very intuitive. I have no experience (yet) with using shellexecute, but I was considering that as a solution. Do you know what the syntax would be in VFP? Anybody have any sample code using ShellExecute in 2.6?

In the meantime I have worked around the problem by writing a batch file on the fly and running it. It isn't classy, but it works.

>>>I am trying to use the run command out of FoxPro 2.6 to launch a web site using a cgi program. The parameters of the cgi program are divided using ampersands (&) and values are denoted with equals (=). The run command seems to choke when using either of these commands. Does anybody know of a way around this?
