[Bruce Easton]

More info in case someone is wondering what the start-up batch script is 
for filepro:

@echo off
rem This File created by install shield on 12-6-2012
set PATH=c:\windows\system32
set PFDSK=d
set PFDATA=
set PFPROG=d:/appl
set PFDIR=d:/appl
set PFMENU=d:/appl/fp/menus
set PFGLOB=
set PFCONFIG=
set PFTMP=d:/appl/tmp
set PFCMARK=30
set PATH=%pfprog%;%PFPROG%\fp;%path%
echo stuff > fp$$$$$$.bat
del fp$$*.bat>NUL
%pfprog%\fp\p.exe
