I want to open a file with the application associated with that file extension. E.g. I have an Excel file (*.xls) and I want to open it in Excel.
If the file name doesn't contain any spaces then the following works on Windows. wd 'winexec "cmd /C ',filename,'" sw_hide' How can I accomplish something similar if the file name contains spaces? Is it possible to come up with a platform agnostic version? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
