Mike, Initially the additon of the code to the navigation complete worked great...then when I played with it a bit more, it quit working...also the pop up message which was being displayed on the top of the form for 1 second now seems to be flash for a milisecond on top of the form and then it goes behind the form....in the center of the screen. If drag my form to the side or bottom, I can see the pop up message being displayed for the full 1 second. Are there parameters for controling the position of the message? I'm not sure what changed! Mike

To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, April 18, 2010, 5:19 PM I should add an important caveat. In the Web Browsers OnNavigationCompleteCustomEEP I put the following code: pause for 1 using 'Navigation Complete' PROPERTY id_varedit set_focus 'true' RETURN It appears to be a timing issue with the Navigation Complete being reported to RBase appropriately. With the pause for 1 statement, which requires no user intervention, sufficient time is allowed for the focus to go to the var edit control. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael J.

Hi all, >From the R>, all of these work the same... dir c:\documents dir c:\documents\ dir c:\documents\*.* But, from within an EEP, I found at least one instance that capturing the output of a DIR command would not work if I used the *.*., for example... erase dir.txt output dir.txt dir c:\documents\*.* output screen did not work. Replacing the dir c:\documents\*.* with c:\documents seemed to work. Which is the preferred method? Should it matter? Mike
