I don't completely and thoroughly understand the question, but . . .

  1 - If you're using filePro User Menus you could have them call
      batch files that possibly did what you're after before they
      executed the filePro process you wanted.

  2 - You could replace filePro User Menus with processing table
      menus that did what you wanted before executing the process
      you wanted.
