Hi all,
In my apps, I have to run some DOS commands and apps. The problem I have is that FP 2.6W returns before the other apps have finished running! Currently I am putting a WAIT WINDOW that says wait till the other app is done before clicking. This to me is rude and crude.

I typically RUN a .BAT file from my app that includes deleting some files, running the other app, and then NPRINTing (Novell print command) the reports that were generated by the other app.

Is anyone aware of a nice way to RUN and wait automatically so that the app is more professional?

TIA
