If the attachment is a word document, how would you pass parameters or variables to it? Run a script?

You did not state where the Word or PDF document is. If it's in an attachment I guess you should look at the PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-ATTACHMENT special Run Process command. If the attachment is on a network drive or webserver you could use PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-URL Kind regards, Michiel On 10/16/06, Susan Palmer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ** > Hi Everyone, > > I would appreciate some help on this one.
