Fred, the $COMMAND is still available and the command structure of RUN app2 IN APP1.apx is still available. You may have included something other than the procedure name after the $COMMAND. Additionally, you can inbed the commands in the database and use RUN SELECT. You can use property commands as others have suggested.
There are many ways to achieve the process you are looking for. Each one will have its own advantages. As Razzak would say "This ain't your grandfather's Oldsmobile."

I have an application with several menus and corresponding custom actions. The actions must be run in order, one at a time, to accomplish the desired end result, including doing updates and printing reports. In addition to the one-at-a-time method, I'd like to provide the operator with an option to automatically run ALL the "modules" one after the other, in sequence--with a single click. I could equip each module with an IF test to tell it whether to stop or proceed to the next module. It boils down to how can I call or run one module from another without returning to the menu? GOTO...LABEL is out because they are different files. In the old days, I could say RUN APP2 IN APP1.APX, but things are different now. And it won't let me "create" a $COMMAND block--I get "not a run procedure." This will make my boss swing from the chandeliers if I can pull it off. How do I do it? Thanks, Fred Fred C.
