Really? I have been doing this for years. 3 foxpro exes. 1. Start.exe, which is a smart xcopy feature and runs the destination exe. 2. Swap.exe, which is used if start.exe is updated. 3. Application.exe, which is my application that is called from Start.exe with a line of "! /n <path\application.exe>"
As the application is running I look at task manager and Start.exe is NOT in the list.

My problem was I had a clear all in the exit program and it didnt like it because it could not clear the loader screen. Being that VFP is not capable, so it seems, of running something else VFP without waiting for it to finish. For some reason also you cant run a VFP exe as an EXe (as in run/n other.exe) Dont know why but it does not work.
