Hi,

I have done this before but have forgotten the language.

I'm using a program called MYOB and when you open the program, it allows you
to open different data files. I would like to create a shortcut that open's
up the program and the data file at the same time.

What should I type in the Target? The path of the program is
C:\MYOB9\MYOB.exe, and the path of the data file is F:\MYOB\Current\MYOB.MYO

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jane
 
Usually the argument would follow the executable so try something like;

C:\MYOB9\MYOB.exe F:\MYOB\Current\MYOB.MYO

or possibly check the developers web site.
