OUTLOOK.EXE

How would I launch this using lisp or VB?

(startapp "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OUTLOOK.EXE" /c ipm.stickynote)

Thanks in advance!

 

Hi,

"Shell" is the equivalent of "StartApp"

Correct me if I'm wrong... but what you have written is LISP.....

try changing the direction of your backslash to a forward slash and adding literal quotes to the switch at the end.


(startapp "c:/Program Files/Microsoft Office/Office10/outlook.exe" "\"/c ipm.stickynote \"")

My version of outlook gives me an error saying it's an invalid switch... so that may be part of the problem.. or not..

I am using this in my menu and it is working great.
