Since it's a Switchboard button, it's probably more straightforward to do this: - Set up a Macro, [M_MyDoc], defined to contain a RunApp command with a CommandLine value of "winword c:\Folder\MyDocument.doc" - In Switchboard Manager, select the desired Switchboard and click on "New" - Set the following properties for the new button: Text: Open my Word document Command: Run Macro Macro: M_MyDoc -- Vincent Johns <[email protected]> Please feel free to quote anything I say here.
