I am executing (or at least trying to) a B3D exe from my BMax app. It works fine in debug mode, but when I try to execute the B3D exe from the BMax executable, BMax exe freezes to the extent I have to power down the computer (Ctrl+alt+delete does not enable task manager). My code is:-



exec$=(AppDir+"/Results_Compare.exe")
'DebugStop

'below works if debugstop left in....
Local proc:TProcess=TProcess.Create (exec$,0)'(AppDir+"/Results_Compare",0)
DebugStop		'may not be necessary if take debug off.....
'---------------------------------------

I have a couple of questions:

How do I gracefully execute the B3D app, then gracefully shutdown the BMax App?

What code can I implement that would allow Ctrl+alt+delete to start the Task Manager if the BMax exe freezes ?

Cheers...
