HI; Love DOpus 4.0, but I have a question. I have an AREXX script that takes a filename is a parameter, and then prompts for some input to process against the file. ie: RX sciptname file.name and then the prompt. I have tried to assign this to a button to process the selected file using sciptname {f} but i cannot get a shell/cli window open for the prompt. I have tried all of the flags that seemed to make sense such as OUTPUT WINDOW, or INCLUDE SHELL STARTUP but no go. It does a little HD activity (to REXX: I assume) and then leaves me looking a DOpus as if nothing has happened, which seems to be a pretty accurate discription. Do I have to change my script in any way or am I missing something. I assume it can be done. Would appreciate the help. Les :{)
