DOS window when using cissue

27 Jul 2006 1:45 #881

I have a windows application (WINAPP). When however I make a system call using cissue a DOS window still appears in the background.

How can I avoid the DOS window when making a systen call using cissue?

Thanks

You cannot stop a DOS window from being created when using CISSUE from a windows application.

However you can probably get the effect you want using the START_PROCESS@ or START_PPROCESS@ instead, which I use too great effect.

Solved my problem:

call dosparam@('username',f_username)

Using param@ in my WINDOS application to get the username from the enviroment variable do not cause a DOS window in the background.

Glad you solved your problem. You may also find the command getenv@ useful to get the value of environmental variables.
