I have been tried followig:
run c:\windows\NOTEPAD.exe filename
The mater reall bother me is the file name, whilch is not fixed but depends on random create.
That is the reason make me want to use '&'
Could you explain more about EXECUTE command ?

Try something like that:
Code: Select all
cProg := 'c:\windows\notepad.exe'
cParam := 'x:\log\'+m_filename
_Execute ( GetActiveWindow() ,, cProg , cparam ,, 5 )
It should help, I think.
Best regards, Marek

Dear Marek
Thanks for your supports.
It realy works.
I replace 'notepad.exe' with 'wordpad.exe', and fail to open .txt file while there is space in path string.
ex. cParam := GetDesktopFolder()+'\'+m_filename
cParam will be 'c:Documents and Settings\...'
please help!
Best Regards

I've made some test and it works good to me.
I've closed parameter with
" characters for sure:
Code: Select all
cParam := '"' + GetDesktopFolder()+'\' + cFile +'"'
but, it's not necessary, I think.
Are you sure your problems are caused with spaces in file name?
In my Windows XP system, WORDPAD.EXE is
NOT placed in WINDOWS directly, but in:
c:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe
Maybe your problem solution lays here?
