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!

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)?


end openFolder
