Hi, how do I start a progam form inside Runrev with a specific
document (PC not Mac).
I need something similar to:
revGoURL "http://www.runrev.com"
, but I have to open local pdfs and word docs for example.
I have tried the launch command, something like:
if (docFileNameWpath <> empty) then
put word 1 to -2 of
queryRegistry("hkey_local_machine\software\classes\AcroExch.Document\shell\o
pen\command\") into acroBaatti
launch docFileNameWpath with acroBaatti
end if
I cant open the same pdf again or a different pdf. So this is not a reliable
way.
Some years ago (MetaCard) I used External Collection, but now
the Collection works only in Macs (Runrev)?
Any suggestions. I know this been discussed some times
but I havent found any solution yet. Some other command
than launch? How do you query reg to get right path to
launch the program.
