Starting Windows Apps From Clipper
I found a solution to the problem. The following command works fine from my Clipper 5.01 application: RUN cmd.exe /c "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\WINWORD.EXE" iltopenb.doc /mILOPEN instead of: RUN start "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\WINWORD.EXE"...- Chuck902

Starting Windows Apps From Clipper
I checked the path and that is not a problem. I can put the commands in a separate batch file that works fine if started from a commmand line. Non-windows programs start and work from inside a Clipper application running under Windows 2000.- Chuck902
