| Hi you! What about using DOS-Commands in Blitzplus. How can I open a Dos-Box-Window under WinXP with blitzplus and use the commands direct out of my programm? Thanks for helping |

| You could call the command prompt yourself. In win98 it is called command.exe and usually located in c:\ In winxp, the command prompt is called 'cmd' Maybe you could call the both?
ExecFile "cmd /c dir/b >dump.txt"
ExecFile "command /c dir/b >dump.txt"
If FileType("dump.txt") <> 1 Then RuntimeError "commands were not executed"
ff = ReadFile("dump.txt")
While Not(Eof(ff))
p$ = ReadLine(ff)
Print p$
Wend
CloseFile ff
DeleteFile "dump.txt"
WaitKey()
End
