>Is it possible to compile a .prg from a DOS .bat file? I have a .bat file that puts a whole bunch of .prgs into one master .prg file. Then I go into VFP and compile the resulting .prg. It would be nice if I could make the .bat file call up VFP and compile it for me.

Hi Michelle,

You can build an exe from a command line in VFP, as in:

BUILD EXE MYEXE FROM MYPROJ where you have created a project containing your main program. You could make a 1 line PRG containing the above line and call VFP with that program as parameter.

HTH...
