    you can use "host" this allows you to exit the form and run your application. Although, depending on which version of forms you are using it will lock the form until it returns from your called program.

    Good Luck!

    HOST command is used to call the operating system based execuatable commands.. like SQLPLUSW, EXPLORER, SQLLDR etc...

    begin
    ..
    ..
    ..
    host("explorer.exe");

    end;
