    Hi, you shouldn't label your topic "Help" - not very informative... :)

    You said "return LISP" did you mean "return to LISP"? If you meant something else like return a value to LISP then more details would be helpful.

    There are a number of ways to execute another application via LISP and wait for it to complete. If the command line is complicated it might be easier to put it in a batch file (.bat or .cmd) and then execute the batch file.

    There is the dos_execute function in the doslib functions.
    (dos_execute "temp.cmd")

    or
    (command "shell" "test.cmd")

    you can also try the (startapp ...) LISP function

    also look at the START.EXE program options. Open a DOS prompt window and type START /?
