| I want to use the system command in a processing table using the "-Z"
| flag. The -Z would need quotes before and after. The following is the
| line needed but I don't know how to do with the quotes:
|
| system "/appl/fp/rclerk msx.served -s1 -z "addfile"
|
| "addfile" is the problem. I believe a variable is what is needed but I
| don't know how to deal with the quotes that filepro is looking for.

The -z flag does not require quotes around its argumnet, so just forget
about them.  But if you insist, construct your command using chr("34").
