Herb191 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 How would I run a external program file in a program I choose. Essentially I want to do the same thing ShellExecute but I want my script to pick what program opens it. I could use Run() and then automate the program to open the file I want, but it seems like there should be an easier/better way of doing it.

enaiman Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Usually these programs accept some parameters. Test first in a cmd window to see if it works. An example how to use notepad this way: Run("notepad.exe c:\test.txt") SNMP_UDF ... for SNMPv1 and v2c so far, GetBulk and a new example script wannabe "Unbeatable" Tic-Tac-Toe Paper-Scissor-Rock ... try to beat it anyway :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
