fscommand to open external powerpoint show
Hey all, I'm having a mare with this!! basically I am trying to open a powerpoint show (ppsx) from a flash projector, and used a tutorial somewhere on this board (just closed the page so i cant supply a link :/) which said about renaming a file downloaded from a site called proxy.exe and creating a batch file with simply a reference to the powerpoint file. This part of it all works, if i try to run the ppsx from the batch file it all works fine, but there must be some miscommunication between the flash file and the batch.
Here is my code
_root.menuMc.scrol.onRelease=function(){
fscommand("exec","start.exe");
}
where start.exe is the link to the batch which runs the powerpoint file. Ive tried placing the files in an fscommand folder, I've tried it on the desktop, i feel like ive tried everything, but flash just wont communicate with the start file!!! argh!!
Help greatly needed asap!! cheers :)
