I appreciate the help and information - Scott Landry came by and showed me the "go_CVAR.ksh file". I didn't find this with a grep command (I was searching for the AW name) because it wasn't on the WP. I thought it was an alias not a Shared Variable. The file is located in the /usr/fox/bin directory and links (equates or substitutes) the shared variable used in the Foxdraw program in the Foxview application. Again, thank you for the help and information - it help me understand the process a little better.
