If I understand this correctly, it's not LiveCode that'll be running the program, but Windows; LiveCode is simply initiating the execution.
Can Windows run programs that exist only in the memory space of another application?
I don't know the answer to that, but kinda I hope not, since intuitively it seems like a potential security hole.
Can you write the program file to temp and launch it from there? Or rewrite its functionality in script? -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for Desktop, Mobile, and Web ____________________________________________________________ ambassa...@fourthworld.com http://www.FourthWorld.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
