Command window from app 1

[button71]

I have a little app that I use as a User Register for my software and other groups.

I often want to manipulate some flag fields in the single table - can I get the Command Window from a button on the form?

Thank you

William

William,

In theory, this is not possible. The command window is only available in the development environment.

However, there are other ways of achieving the same goal. I suggest you start by looking at a free tool called Foxbox, from Kirtland Associates (

http://www.kirtlandsys.com/).

I have used it to add a command window substibute to an application running at a client's site. It works well.

Thanks a million Mike - as always you give me a winner.

I've moded the code to get the foxbox window at its real dimensions and added the form to a button on my main form - works perfectly.

Regards
