Hi,

I'm not so hot on DOS commands so thought I'd better consult!


I'm launching an application from vba then instructing it to run it's
own script as follows:


***


Set oSplus = CreateObject("S-PLUS.Application")
oSplus.executestring ("source(""c:\\" & scriptToRun & """,
echo=T)")


***


The script that the application ( splus) runs takes a looong time at
the end of which S plus closes. I want the launching vba to wait
until
excel closes (i.e, sit in a loop for a while) before continuing in
its own execution.


Not sure how to do this - any pointers would be greatfully
recieved...


Many thanks


Chris
