To use the Real mode engine :- startsql fglgo myprog.4gi or for the Protected mode engine :- pstartsql pfglgo myprog.4gi (check the ref manual : 1, section 1-65+ for further examples) where "myprog.4gi" is the program you want to run. You can include a pathname as well if "myprog.4gi" is not in the current directory. If you have any problems using RDS for DOS, especially with large programs then please let me know. We have made some progress in this area recently, but still not enough to get our compiled 4GL suite working correctly. David. > >many thanks, >nasos
