Howdy...

A quick question...
Do you know of any tool(free or commercial) that I can use to rotate multiple EXE files???

For example, I have a ProjectorA.exe and ProjectorB.exe that I want to run in turn... If there is a tool that I can use, I don't have to add any modification on the ProjectorA.fla and ProjectorB.fla to make it happen... and it is not going to be that easy to get it done in Flash either...

Anybody??? :)

How about a 3rd main projector file used to run any number of other projector files?

Hm... Yeah... That might work...
Not sure how I can force-quit the EXE file from the main projector, but I am sure that functionality should be built into any of those third party projector tools...

But it'd be great if anybody know of any ready-made program that does the job... I am saying that because I am not supposed to work on that and if I ever do, I'll have to do that on my off time... :(
