Hi Nick,

Your comment regarding using a variable to launch a programme doesn't seem correct, and certainly doesn't agree with my experiments.

I used what you suggested:

10 input f$
20 run f$

and it worked just fine.

Another interesting thing....

If you use CHDIR "......" you'll go up a number of levels of directories. Not sure yet of the limitations of that, though. I built the following directory structure:

ROOT\MMBASIC\TEST

and found that entering CHDIR "...." took me from the TEST directory to the ROOT directory. Using three dots, took me up only one level, i.e. to the MMBASIC directory.

Hope that helps.
