Jess,
Issuing CLOSE ALL and CLEAR ALL will close any databases which were open before calling the exe. If the user opens a database then calls the exe, they will then have to reopen the database(s) - if they have done any complex relations, they will have to re-do those. This is where the CREATE/SET VIEW comes in. Remember the 11th commandment - Thou shalt not upset the user.
