Explicitly Open a TXT File Using NotePad

[photoworks]

Hello,

I want to explicitly tell AMS to open a TXT file using NotePad. I believe I should be able to pass on the argument but am having trouble.

Could you please tell me what the command would look like and where I would put it?
Thank you in advance.

You need to know the location for notepad.exe.

Then in execute program:

Target Filename: C:\Windows\notepad.exe
Target Arguments: %srcdrv%MyTextFile.Txt

Should do it!

I expect I can have a copy of NotePad.exe on the distribution CD, or would I be getting into copyright issues?

You can usually find notepad.exe in the windows directory, you could use %WinDir%\notepad.exe this should find it on any windows OS. I am not sure about the copyright laws pertaining to the redistribution of notepad.
