Hio Ken

Just replied to xavier before I saw yours.

Thanks for the tip, I did indeed see a dos window starting up.
My script was

on mouseUp
   put "C:\Armbase\PDATconv.exe /I" && quote & "C:\Armbase\TestApp1DB.xdf" 
& quote into mycommandline
   get shell(mycommandline)
end mouseUp


I changed it to

on mouseUp
   set the hideConsoleWindows to true
   put "C:\Armbase\PDATconv.exe /I" && quote & "C:\Armbase\TestApp1DB.xdf" 
& quote into mycommandline
   get shell(mycommandline)
end mouseUp

AND it works great.

Thanks for the top tip.

cheers
