As it is now __RUN ( or HB_RUN ) is more a "SHELL" or "SYSTEM". It's clear that we can't change __RUN or RUN cmd but extending HB_RUN to use WinExec ( or CreateProcess ) would be simple and highly portable ( in the sense that it has a meaning in all OS ). I agree that other possibilities like window behaviour control should be OS specific best regatds, Lorenzo _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
