You can use Sys.Exec to open up different programs. They are also executed in their default program. Such as webpage would be opened in IE and .avi would be in widows media player (unless set otherwise). So just Sys.Exec("movename.avi") and you got yourself a movie (i might be wrong on sys syntax) |

If he's using Turing 3.1.1 or whatever, he's probably going through the same thing as what I did a waaays back. The Sys.Exec returns an integer value. Like, if the command line is run properly, it will return a zero I think, otherwise, different errors would return like a 1 or a 2. So you'd need something like: var x:int x:=Sys.Exec("TuringRules.avi") then it should run fine. |
