Hi,

I am working with forms 10g.
I am generating the word document using ole2.
During the generation of word document i should call an .exe which covers the word document population .
the .exe just shows the progress bar runing.

Below is the code i am runing.

ole2_pr;
host('c:\test.exe',no_screen);

here ole2_pr is a procedure which populates the data in word.
but after completion i am getting the .exe.

But once the procedure starts populating data ,it should call .exe and hide word document behind.

i tried putting the .exe call inside the procedure.but till the .exe gets completed the word generation stops.

SO any idea or built in to run both at a time.It seems to be difficult but i think there should be a built in to do this.

Thanks,
Srinivas

how about setting a timer.

you must be knowing howmuch time it takes to generate the word file. set atimer, initiate it before u call the OLE procedure.
