Fine - so AppA launches AppB, AppC, AppD each as a separate VFP session. No sweat. AppA doesn't even have to be in VFP if all it is doing is launching the other apps.

You'd have to change the Forms to set their paths in their Activate event, and block their execution in their Deactivate, so they only run when they have Focus.
