RUN /N Not Working Correctly with MS-DOS Batch File (106660)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows 3.0
- Microsoft FoxPro for Windows 2.5
- Microsoft FoxPro for Windows 2.5a
- Microsoft FoxPro for Windows 2.5b
This article was previously published under Q106660 SUMMARY
In FoxPro for Windows versions 2.5, 2.5a, and 2.5b, the order in which
lines of code are executed within a program file may seem to be altered
when you are using the RUN command with a /N parameter to execute an MS-DOS
executable or batch file. The /N parameter stands for NOWAIT and allows
program execution to continue before the command is completed. This makes
it seem as if the MS-DOS batch file is not being executed until after the
other commands.
