Does anyone know how to start form designer programatically such as how you can with system editor?

When I try val=Utility("RUNWIN" , "FORMDES")

I get a message saying "Engine is busy. Try again later"

When my car won't start, its usually not because the engine is busy.

Should I check the battery terminals on my PC?

Have you tried

Cmd=!FORMDES.EXE /AP=: @appid: " /UN=: @username

DataArray=Set_Property("SYSTEM", "IDLEPROC", Cmd)

adding in the password if required?

I just tried that with and without a password. The form designer fires up but then comes up with an error message "Unable to load the database" then it closes.

(Manually running form designer is ok)

If we can get this to work, my next question was going to be, Can you get it to automatically load a form as well.

Any suggestions?

Paul-

What sort of functionality are you after? Is this for a client system or for yourself?

Mike, Its a developer utility for myself. We have a system we created for sending upgrades to clients. Basically its just a file that contains all the records required for repository, forms, events, stored procedures etc. Sometimes I have the need to see what is contained in one of these upgrades. (I have many) Using the TCL equivalent that I created I usually just list the records in the upgrade. From the list on screen I can click on a record and press F2 and go straight into edit mode for that record. If its the source for a window then I have an option that writes it to SYSREPOSWINS as a TESTFORM. I would then like the form designer to fire up and display this form. This is the only step that doesn't work at the moment.
