Sorry for pushing this but I'm stuck on the road without another machine to test with.
Glen, I'll look at this now.
No need - it was indeed the fact that it was being piped to the stack.
I gave Glen an example of using
open process "cmd" for update
that both wrote his commands and read the result; so I don't think there's any need for you took at that problem.
But I'd like to hear any more you remember about problems with open process on Windows.
In the mean time, I recommend using shell() if you possibly can.
If you don't need a back and forth dialog, try piping a file into cmd using shell(). You can set that file from your script and delete it afterward. You can put it into the appropriate specialFolderPath().
If it is sensitive, you might have to wipe the file or just use this approach until you can make open process work for you. You may want to set hideConsoleWindows.
So would you do something like
put "d:" & cr & "cd \My folder\my directory" & cr & "dir *.jpg" & cr into URL "my.bat"
put shell("cmd < my.bat")
delete file "my.bat"
(assuming you get all these in the correct folders :-)
Thanks -- Alex.
