Not the first time I've been wrong - you know I don't know much about the 4D
language.
I guess most of my usage of execute in 4d was with variable substitution, like:
$cmd := 'PDF Load Font(%d;"%s";"%s";"%s")' % ($vl_PDFRef;$font ;$type
;$opt)
$vl_FontRef:=execute in 4d($cmd;*)
I could never figure out how to pass a pointer or an array using execute in 4D.
It probably dawned on me at some point that 4D was just compiling/interpreting
a string, I just forgot about it or the forest was blocked out by the trees. If
I had process variables for the pointer or string, it would probably have
worked.
