Hi Bob,

According to a later email, you are finding the apps folder and  
putting it into a global variable called gMyAppsFolder. In the script  
above, you are calling a function: myAppsFolder to get the same data.

Try this:

on mouseup
  global gMyAppsFolder
  set the hideConsoleWindows to true
  put gMyAppsFolder & "\Components\PDATconv.exe /I" && quote & \
    gMyAppsFolder & "\Components\Armbase.xdf" & quote into mycommandline
  get shell(mycommandline)
end mouseup

Cheers,
Sarah
