[Quoted] Anyone can help?

[Quoted] I try to run dos commands like copy or run a batch file from a 4.5 Form. Is there a way for me to do it other than writing a foreign function which seems somewhat complicated? I use the Form to get text data from a scanner, then want to issue commands inside the Form to print the data by a printer which can only accept DOS commands. I am pretty new to Developer/2000 form.

Thanks in advance.
