Thanks for that suggestion Jeff.

I'm working on something else right now but will look into it tomorrow ... will post my findings.

little trial and error you can get that doing what you want. Here is an

Hi Frank

Thanks for your reply.  I have tried as you suggest (Config.FPW and
Startup.PRG in the VFP9.EXE folder) but that still does not work.
Double-clicking on the PKX opens the project and CD in the command
window shows the current folder as the project's folder)

Paul,

I think the issue you are seeing is that when you double click on the
PJX, the VFP9.exe runs, but it runs with the default/start in folder
being the folder where vfp9.exe sits. If you set up your config in
that folder then you should get what you want, once you can make it
generic enough.

Frank.

Thanks Jan

You say that double-clicking on a PJX works as usually but what are
the commands in your Start.PRG and do they get executed (in addition
to the project being opened).

My config.fpw and start.prg for "command=do start" are placed in VFP
folder. Doubleclicking any PJX works for me as usualy.

Hi all

I have a folder containing a PJX, Config.FPW, Startup.PRG,
StartThor.PRGand StartHackCX.PRG

Config.FPW contains "Command=Do Startup.PRG"
Startup.PRG contains:
    Do StartThor.PRG
    Do StartHackCX.PRG

The problem is that none of these commands executes when
double-clicking on the PJX in Windows Explorer (or other file
manager), even though Sys(2019) points to the Config.FPW in the
folder in question.

Any ideas or is this just the way it works?

Paul Newton
