Thanks for the effort Tony. The thing is I need to connect to the Internet for sending certain files to a certain destination using 3rd party software. So there is no need to use a web browser. I just simply need to connect to the internet and send the files to a certain directory and the 3rd...

Anyone?

For internet.

This is basically what I want to do: I want to write some code that can open and run a dailup connection. I have no idea how to do this so any and all suggestions are appreciated. Keep in mind though that the user already has a existing dailup connection, I just need a way to run that shortcut...

I'm not sure if this might be it, but I had a similar problem on XP machines. This is what I found: Lets say you put a field on your report, this field consists out of two parts, the text object and the actuall field object. Lets say that the text object should contain no text in it, then you...

Thanks for all the help guys ;-) Really appreciated!

Ok, so what are my other alternatives for closing the app?

Once again, this problem refers to the 3rd party software we are using with our paradox application. I use the following code to try and close the application from Paradox, but for some unknown reason it doesn't work: t = ":reportsDB:Windows.db" sleep(13000) enumWindowHandles(x,"#32770")...

I have to, for some reason, if I dont use the explorer tag, the 3rd party software, for some reason, does not work properly!

Although.... The SET command you mentioned. Do you mean the SET command in DOS? How would I go about doing that, because the value of the variable can change up to 5 times in a single execution of our program... Any help is greatly appreciated!!

I mentioned in a previous post that we are using 3rd party software in conjunction with our paradox application. For this software to open correctly I use the following code: execute("explorer" + getaliaspath(":x:") + "\\xyz.exe") The problem is that with XP a dialog box pops up saying the...

Thanks Tony, I messed around with the write and set and it seems to be working thanks ;-)

I also forgot to ask: How can I get the 3rd party software to close? I use the execute command to open the program, but how can I close it from within Paradox 9? Thanks

We are using 3rd party software in our program that runs on a server, for this software to work I would need to set enviroment/system variables during run time on the client machine. The value can change up to 4 or 5 times during our program executable. Does any one know if it is possible to...

Thanks for the reply Tony. I'll be trying it out today and let you know if it worked. Thanks again Richard
