We would like to be able to execute a DOS command (really any external program) by calling a procedure from Microsoft Pascal. The DOS EXEC function call (INT 21H, AH=4BH, AL=0) looks like the way to go, but the entire sequence of necessary events (freeing memory, creating FCB's, etc.) is not very clear. Has anybody out there in netland used this feature or have suggestions? Please post responses here. Thanks. G. Seaburg c/o keifer@uiucdcs
