As Phil said, but don't set the text of the (empty) image
used as icon of the button but set the filename of the image.
The icon will change accordingly.
Hi Klaus,
The only method I can think of is where you set the icon of a button to
the id of an image object, and then set the text of that image object to
the binfile url of different image files. That does work, but may not be
what you're looking for.

Or another approach might be to open the invisible app as a process in
the UI app.

Hi Bill,

If so, can you use sockets in your environment? That would be a simple
way to get the interaction
Hi Peter,
Is it possible you're running LC in a user account that doesn't have
"admin" permissions? I suggest this because they are lab computers.
You can check Apple menu > System Preferences > Users & Groups >

I'm not sure how this would work in your context, but one way to break
up a file into pieces is to use open / read / close like this:
# assumes LC 9.0.2
# tMyFolder = path of folder containing the file to upload
# tMyFileShortFilename = 'short' filename of file to upload - no

control-c. The outcome is identical to control-c but no
control chars are required.
So this works:

In a LC script I need to write control-c to an open process so the app
being run as a process will end. (At least that's how I can end it in
Terminal). Has anyone had success doing this? Please share what you have
learned about it.
