Hello all, I've just joined the list... but I'm more of a director user.

To open your flash file (presumably an .exe?) with lingo, just use:


open "yourfilename.exe"


you only need the 'with application' part if you want to specify it. Sometimes

thre may be several programmes that can open a file type, but a .exe defines

itself. You also need to tell Director that the exe is at the same folder level

as your diretor projector. So your lingo should actually be:

open the moviePath & "yourfile.exe"


It's worth looking up 'the moviepath' to understand it if you start using

subfolders and stuff. :)


Ta,

tina.
