   Hi Tony & Jim,   
      
   I regret that I have confused matters with my lack of   
   detail...   
      
   The batch file, and Paradox, are both on the same system and   
   that system is named K06.   
      
   Our data files, forms, etc. are on a remote machine that is   
   nominally our server. ("Nominally" because the server   
   connects to the other systems as peer to peer.)   
      
   I tried the full path approach because my attempts to call   
   the batch file as C:\ten.bat failed with the now familiar   
   error.   
      
   Again, my apologies for the confusion, and thanks for any   
   further help,   
   --   
   Kenneth
