I got a weird problem when creating an active link to open a Hyperlink. The run process using the following command

1. start netscape.exe http://server.com/$523870974$

is working very well on one computer (Windows 95), but not work on another one (Windows NT).

I have tried the following command:

2. netscape.exe http://server.com/$523870974$

3. c:\program files\netscape\communicator\program\netscape.exe http://server.com/$523870974$

The command 1 and 2 on Windows NT work pretty well in the DOS mode.

To eliminate the path problem, I try to test the Run Process using the command:

c:\winzip\winzip32.exe
and
winzip\winzip32.exe

but they don't work, either.

My question is:

Is there any specific requirements to set up Run Process on Windows NT?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

cmd /c start http://rapid/

...or just:
http://rapid/


(Not sure about Win95/98)

Both of this will use the default browser, the last one will not show the
dos-window.

The best place is Start->Run, if you can run it from Start->Run you can run
most of it from an active link.

It should contain one line "Start %1" without the quotes.
Run \\system\share\url.bat $URL$ from your AL.
This is the only way that I've found to work with both
NT and 95.

By using Start instead of Netscape, allows the user to pick
their preferred browser. Unfortunately, there's no way to
stop the ugly DOS window from briefly appearing.

Your only other choice is to create multiple ALs and use the
$OS$ variable to run the appropriate command or batch file.

then you get all this for free.
unless you want this button stuff, or you want to hide the startup somewhere deep below the surface of your form......
Keep It simple.

This is what we do on Xterms..

Set fields into a hidden field called DISPLAY ---- > $PROCESS$ echo $DISPLAY (fires on display)
