Hello at all,

when i create exe file with B4j create package standalone, when i run it
from a command prompt exit immediatly and continue work in background,
but i need to wait until finish, because it must create a file and after i need
to elaborate it.

How i can do it ?

Thank you very much
Maurizio

You just want to create a Report.xlsx, and write a ok to finito.opn then exit app.
I wonder why you would like to lanuch it from cmd prompt. and you will do what after the file is created?

without searching it... a lot... did you try moving this line:
B4X: 
    File.WriteString(File.DirApp,"finito" & Utente & ".opn","OK")

into sub: CreaFileExcelXTglNico

...because you are waiting for it...
also after wait for CreaFileExcelXTglNico

add a SLEEP(3000) '(3secs) to be sure that file closed...

Try calling run_debug.bat from PHP, or compiling it to non-ui jar and using java running it
