Okay, you can use @system_return_code or @userx to do this. They can both be checked in the Paragraph after returning from the BASIC program to see what happened. If you want to know how let me know.

Re: [U2] Paragraphs and procwrite
Many: 1. Have the program create and/or update the paragraph record in the VOC file with a read, insert, and write. 2. Have the program run the paragraph with the appropriate argument, e.g. ARGUMENT = USER.INPUT.PART.NO http://user.input.part.no/ COMMAND = PARAGRAPH.NAME http://paragraph.name/ :ARGUMENT EXECUTE COMMAND 3. If the paragraph needs a select statement, you can have a program build an appropriate SAVE.LIST, execute the GET.LIST command inside the program, and let the paragraph process the records. 4. The paragraph can also read a variable from a VOC file with the F,... prompt. I believe HELP will give you the details. -- Louie Bergsagel Bergsagel Computer Consulting On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 3:14 PM, roy r...@distsolutions.com wrote: Hi all, Is there a way to accomplish passing an argument from a basic program to a paragraph?

And of course, the paragraph mentioned in #2 would read the argument using the C2 command, where the number in the Cn prompt represents, in this example, the second word on the command line. e.g. IF C2 # THEN SELECT INVENTORY WITH PART.NO = C2 On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 5:25 PM, Louie Bergsagel louiebergsa...@gmail.comwrote: ... 2.
