I take it the declaration of the array would be :

    PRIVATE myProcess AS String[]

But how do I add that to the EXEC line for keeping track of it.  I've tried:
  
     EXEC ["ping", txtInsert.text] FOR READ WRITE AS myProcess().add

but I get a 'Null Object' error on that line when it tries to execute.

Thanks Rob and Benoit,
