Subject: FLASH: F4:Getting a button to launch .EXE file
From: Butler, Horace P
Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2001 13:28:44 GMT

I have built a splash screen for a presentation using a Flash4 projector.
There is a button included on the screen that I would like to use to launch
an executable file that will be placed in the same directory as the splash.
These will be loaded onto a CD and the splash will be executed via the
autorun.inf file. How do I tell the button to launch the executable...I know
basic buttonworks, but not sure of the actions to assign to the button.

HOPEFULLY....

1-Autorun.inf launches projector
2-Projector plays & user clicks button
3-Button launches Authorware presentation (.exe)

Thanks,

H.P. "Butch" Butler
