  We had a similar problem and it doesn't work.  We had to have a client side exectuable that looks at the registry for the program associated to file extension.  Bascially we call 

  winexecwait("c:/temp/shelexec.exe /f c:/temp/myfile.pdf /r:max")

  and it works just fine.

  look at http://www.naughter.com/shelexec.html

    Shellexec may do it.

    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
