Mike, I just wanted to be able to do it for looks, similar to how Rbase can pull up a website in a form window. I did not think it could be done because I did not see anywhere to do it. Tom Hart

You can change the Parent window of a "child" window process, but any Application's starting window is a "Top Level" window. Some of the APIs that could make a top level window behave as if it were a child, can't be done from RBase in a way that would function with all versions of windows is limited in one measure RBase Integer and (in the case of 64 bit systems now) no Int64. So just be happy with Launch. Just curious, but what makes you thingk you would be happier with the app running in RBase Form anyway? Even if the task could be accomplished, what would be the behavior difference for you? ----- Original Message ----- From: "TOM HART" <[email protected]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2013 10:29 AM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Launching program in Rbase form : How do I launch a program to run within a Rbase form.
