Hello.
I think you will find it much simpler to use the run command, available in
the Jaws scripting language. Below is as ample of what I would write, were
I trying to bring IE5 on my machine. Note that the folder, in which IE5
resides on my computer, may be ifferent in your machine. Instead of
intern~1, for instance, you may have it in intern~2, using the shortened
file name conventions. Anyway, here's what I'd write:
Script OpenI_Explorer()
;you might use f12 as the key to run this script.
SayString("opening internet explorer.")
Pause()
Run("c:\\progra~1\\intern~1\\iexplorer.exe")
EndScript
Good Luck.
