DDW.

Add an "@" at the start of the filePro menu command line.  This will cause 
filePro to display "press Enter to continue" after executing the command, 
which will allow you to see the error message(s) you are likely getting.

(And, to help in debugging, you can add "set -x" as the first executable 
line of the script, which should cause the shell to echo each command before 
it executes.)
