I did use run /n. It works like a charm with my one-level loader.

So how does this make a difference?

It is bothersome trying to debug this, because I can not see

what is happening. Because the loaders are .exe programs, I do not

have the benefit of the debugger, etc.

I have been wondering if having two VFP .exes running at once

is an issue. (Is there a conflict between config files?)
