Can somebody point me at the best way to call a DOS batch file, and wait for it to finish. The batch file itself will be running a number of commands, including sqlloader. Ruby needs to wait for it to finish before continuing. What is the way to do this please? Pretty please? Thanks awfully! ------=_Part_42301_29666103.1162843674225--
