Shell Execute with parameters

[dazzer]

Hi Folks,
I am trying to run the Shell Execute Command in FMProjector, but I need to pass parameters as well as a file name.

Any Ideas? I have tried quite a few things, but no luck yet.

Cheers

Try this:


on (release) {
cmdStr="c:\\Support\\Solution\\exec\\test.exe";

fscommand("EXEC", cmdStr);
}

Sampe for passing parameter

on (release) {
cmdStr="c:\\WIN2000\\NOTEPAD.EXE c:\\autoexec.bat";

fscommand("EXEC", cmdStr);
}

Thanks for the quick reply,

Unfortunatly the commmands you gave me do not work in FlashMX, as Macromedia have reduced the fscommand("EXEC") functionality. See http://www.macromedia.com/support/fl...opics.htm#exec

What I am trying to do is run a program with
fscommand("fas.shell.open", "docs/RelNotes.pdf");
This one works fine, but when I try to run an exe with a parameter, I have no luck
fscommand("fas.shell.open", "setup.exe -english");

(I am specifically wanting to use MX for its unicode support)


Many Thanks

Just passed by your post looking for a solution with FS command myself. Check the docs, maybe they'll help:
