loading external process

[Chris747]

Hi folks,

Is there a way to call a batch file on load of an EFS script. I'd like to start an external process on initial load of the EFS...and then not again unless i reload the script.

Thanks

Have not tried it but it should be doable. See ShellExecuteExample.efs at the link below for an example of using the Windows API to execute a program from within an EFS script.

Hi Chris....
Thanks a ton.... works like a charm. Can now run an external batch file from a button off a chart !!
