Stephen -
"launch" should work within the IDE without having to build the standalone. You can put the following code in a button as a test. It even works in a multiline message box, using just the 5 lines of code within the mouseup handler.
on mouseUp answer file "Choose a text file to open..." put it into targetFile answer file "Choose your Text editor application..." put it into textEditorApp launch targetFile with textEditorApp end mouseUp

Thanks to James for the advice to try to use the "launch" command rather than
the "open file" command to open a file in the same folder as the Revolution
application. The launch command does work on opening an application but only
after the Revolution program has been built as a standalone. Am I correct in
that one needs to first build a standalone for the launch command to work?
Also, when should the "open file " command be used as opposed to the launch
command? Thanks.
