Running Windows based Prgs within FPW2.6?

[ABQMark]

Hi guys,

I know by typing MAILTO: within Windows RUN window, It will load the default email client and automatically goto new message screen.....Is there a routine for this in FPW2.6a (shareware/freeware)?

How does one execute a windows-based programs in FPW2.6 without going thru DOS (RUN statement)?

Thanks again,

Thanks Dave.

Are the above codes for running in VFP? I'm
getting syntax errors all over the place. I'm using FPW2.6a.

Could you please tell me the changes i should make for the supplied codes to work in the FPW2.6 platform?


Thaanks.
