We have two standalone 4ge's. : The first 4ge (prog01) RUNS the second 4ge (prog02) passing it command : line agruments indicating which row prog01 had last queried. : If prog02 performs a query; how can I pass the new row information : back to prog01? : The two programs need to be standalone. Making one a function of the : other won't help. Command RUN can return value 0-255. If you need wider range of returned value(s), you have two choises: 1. Create temporary file in filesystem, which contains returned values, and C-functions or load/unload to pass/get values. 2. Create communication table in database with functions allowing passing arguments. Both choises aren't trivial, but allow complex communication between standalone 4ge's. : Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. I hope this helps. -- Zdeno Miklas e-mail: ash@softec.sk SOFTEC spol. s r. o. phone : 42-7-273805 ext.128 Kutuzovova 23 fax : 42-7-272537 831 03 Bratislava SLOVAKIA
