I'm having a problem using IconX with a script that passes a switch to a basic program (bbaseII). The script contains: run :utilities/bbaseII -f<database_name> where <database_name> = name of database Running this command from the cli works fine, but from IconX I get: System Request Illegal function call at line 65 in module = MID$ I tried quoting the switch, etc. but to no avail. Is this a problem with IconX or bbaseII? Any insight on this one? -Peter

|     You don't say what the BASIC is (AmigaBASIC?).  Did you attempt to
    print the arguments to the MID$ function to see if the string contents
    (and integer contents) are correct?

| From the bBaseII documentation:
bBaseII was written in HiSoft BASIC Version 1.05, and compiled using
     the HiSoft BASIC Professional compiler.
Since I only have a binary version to experiment with
