Need to allow external program to run

[Bill Taylor]

Hi all,
I am running on win 98 with access 2002. I have a program that writes data
files that run as macros for an archaic program. I want to loop thru every
file(macro) that my program generated. and run the program for each macro.
problem: how do I determine when the external program has completed so that
I can start the next instance of it in my loop.

Not really for the "faint of heart."

Take a look at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;209876. (Although the article is for Access 2000, it's the
same for Access 2002.)

Good luck.
