QPC_EXEC is the command you need. For example, to start Windows Wordpad from within QPC2:
QPC_EXEC "C:\Program Files\Accessories\Wordpad.exe" If you supply a command line parameter, some programs treat it as files to start with, so if you want to start wordpad with a file called MyLetterhead.doc: QPC_EXEC "C:\Program Files\Accessories\Wordpad.exe";"C:\My Documents\MyLetterhead.doc" I am not sure how to get it to type in characters for passwords etc. It might be possible to send the password from QPC2 to Scrap extension and use QPC_SYNCSCRAP command to ensure items copied to Scrap are copied to Windows clipboard too. That is the nearest I can think of at the moment. -- Dilwyn Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arnould" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 20, 2005 9:35 AM Subject: [ql-users] Win apps from QPC > IIRC it is possible to start windoze applications from QPC.
