AW: Open a folder on the desktop from a LiveCode app

2021-06-19 Thread Paul Dupuis via use-livecode

Thank you Marty and Mathias

I figured there was a simple way, but must have missed anything about 
folders under the Launch command in the dictionary. All set!

For example:

on openFolder pPath -- where pPath is the path and name to a document 
(file)

  set itemDel to slash
  delete last item of pPath -- leaves the the path to the folder 
containing the document

  -- now, how do I open this on the desktop (i.e in Explorer)?


end openFolder

Open a folder on the desktop from a LiveCode app

2021-06-19 Thread Paul Dupuis via use-livecode
What is the "best" way (or any way) to open a folder on the Windows 
desktop from a Livecode script.


For example:

on openFolder pPath -- where pPath is the path and name to a document (file)
  set itemDel to slash
  delete last item of pPath -- leaves the the path to the folder 
containing the document

  -- now, how do I open this on the desktop (i.e in Explorer)?
