>Whenever I call a DOS batch file from VFP, it runs in a DOS window and then waits for a CTRL-C before proceeding. Is there any way to avoid this? I am trying to automate a process that must have a DOS batch file run.

Try creating a PIF file (shortcut) with the same name as your batch file ie postal.pif. In the properties for this shortcut tick the 'Close on Exit' checkbox in the Program tab.
