Re: Calling procedures

[Ben Lawrence <ben_lawrence69@HOTMAIL.COM>]

Hi all, I left a major problem out of my first email.  One of the
procedures is executing a .bat file through DOS.  The procedure after
this, gets called and ran before the .bat file is done running.  Is
there a way to prevent this from happening?
