>I don't know of any other way in VFP. All command line parameters to VFP will be passed as character, so you could use a naming convention and "build" your parameter name in a loop to check for the first one that contains a logical .F. for it's value. The one before that (eg: the last one that's of type character) is the last actual passed parameter.

Yes, but I do have to put about 20 parameters there as a buffer to be safe. I thought we would have something better by now.
