Quick Question

[ojef1]

New to this, if I wanted to simply open an internet explorer browser window, why won't

Run("iexplore.exe")

work? I've tried different capitalizations, and if I do

Run("Notepad.exe")

it works fine, so I assume it has to do with the filepath maybe? I know this is trivial but it would help get me started with what I'm trying to do. Thanks.

This is because iexplorer.exe isn't found in the PATH and notepad is.

Thanks alot that makes sense...it's what i was thinking i just didn't know what to do about it...it's very picky about the little things apparently as well, but i got it working now.

Is there any way to view error messages to help with the debugging process?

Is there any way to view error messages to help with the debugging process?

$Run = Run(@ProgramFilesDir & '\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.exe')
If @error > 0 Then
    MsgBox(0, '', 'There was an error', 1)
Else
    Sleep(2000)
    MsgBox(0, 'Launched', 'PID of the process is: ' & $Run, 2)
EndIf
