>>>>>I need to be able to run a DOS command (in particular the "net use" command) and see any results given by the command. In other words, instead of the results being printed to the screen I need them to be returned to my foxpro program. Any ideas? Hmm...I'm stymied.

A while back, I was able to create a pif file that called a DOS batch file that
did almost anything in DOS. The pif file set to run in background mode so that
it did not flash anything on the screen. It seems like it ran ok on NT 3.51
but I no longer have such an animal to test it on.
