Is there a way to opena file or folder without the Sys Exec? Just wondering, because that doesnt work on some computers at school, and I wantedc to make a program for my friend (Evil school network doesnt even give you paint or notepad!) |

Ok, i mean, on the "old" computers, (ones without XP), you can access files using
that makes C: pop up in explorere window. Thats what i want to do, in another way if possible |

works on xp pro for me, i think it could be that he has a onlder verson of turing where sys.exec did not try to oppen the application. off the top of my head i cant think of a way to do it with out sys.exec. also if this is just for geting to c: driver on a networked comp, there are many easyer ways to do this then using turing. shuch as the run line, ms word (by trying to open a file then puting in C, making a short cut there on a spot where u can save/edit files, editing a short cut to go there, using IE, making C: a favorite in IE, and the list goses on.... |

Ahh, but all those things, run line, IE, etc are blocked, the Turing way is the only way! (But why does it work on the ones with 98/me and not the ones with XP?) |
