SteveB Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 There is no way to do it within FM. However, if you are on a Windows platform, you can use WinBatch. I don't use Macs, but there probably is a solution there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveB Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 You will need to get WinBatch with the compiler so that you can create standalone EXE files. See the WinBatch web site at www.wilsonware.com. I interfaced FM to WinBatch through the use of the Troi File dialogs plugin. I use Troi to create a temp file containing commands for WinBatch. I then use Troi to execute the WinBatch EXE which in turn reads the temp file and processes its commands. It returns data the same way. You can also use the Copy and Paste commands, but you must be on the layout that has the field(s) you are using to hold & process the commands for WB. You can also use the Send DDE command to start up your WinBatch EXE, but you're stuck with trying to get the answers back thru the clipboard or a file.
