Hi Brian,ShellExec is only in genero,not BDL.
For letting WinExecWait working properly within BDL,the whole commandline must be sent properly
LET    win_cmnd = "outlook.exe c:\\\\test.eml" (assuming outlook in the path)
The crash bug has been fixed meanwhile (error in formatting the error message:-()

Kind Regards, Leo

Hello list.

Does anyone know how to start a windows program from 4js depending on the
windows file extension.

Like :

LET    win_cmnd = "c:\\\\test.eml"
CALL  WinExecWait(win_cmd) returning ...


I would like it to start Outlook with the file test.eml but instead 4js
crashes.

Many thanks
