I've developed DOS scripts to allow bulk generation or conversion of forms, libraries and menus when referenced objects change (and as a pre-release check to ensure all runtimes are up to date)

The Dos FOR loop works fine, but I can't seem to stop f45gen from loading the Forms Generator window while the generation runs - no messages, popups or anything, just a blank screen with no acknowledgement needed

BATCH=YES is the first parameter in the command line - this seems to stop a couple of information dialogues appearing, but not the screen itself.

We need to generate around 1400 forms at times and at the moment have to devote a PC for about 4 hours as it is impossible to do anything else with the Windows popping up all the time

Any ideas please direct to <horsemth_at_mel.switch.net.au> as availability of this newsgroup is terribly erratic at times
