Subject: [Vantage] VB Commands RUNPROG


Does anyone know if the VB Command RUNPROG actually works. The
Vantage help states that RUNPROG "Runs a program written in the
Progress 4GL". I have written the following 4GL test program:

/* udtest.p */
MESSAGE "This is a message"
VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.

This program runs fine when added to the Vantage menu using Menu
Structure Maintenance but I cannot get it to run from a VB Form
Button using RUNPROG. Am I missing something here or is the Vantage
help file incorrect?

All I am trying to do is get the system date into a VB Form. Anyone
have this trick in their bag? Any help would be appreciated!!
