I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how to launch an external application from within powerbuilder. I am not looking to pass arguments to the application just to simply execute it. Thanks in advance for the help

If you need to run appl. with parms, You may want use Shellexecute (WINAPI) command. (much better than run command)
