Is it possible to open a file, and have it open with whatever its default program is?

Like if I specify a .txt file, it will open in notepad, or if I specify a JPEG it will open in my image viewer?

ShellExecute()

Or

Run + @ComSpec

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

ShellExecute will do just that; open with whatever program is associated to the file extension.

EDIT: doh got beat... not sure how I got beat by 5 minutes I must be slow today....
