Re: Executing a PC application from iSeries utilizing getRuntime().exec and data queues path question.

If you know the path of the file and your are using Personal Communications or iSeries Client Access (whatever it is called) you can issue the following commands:

strpco

STRPCCMD PCCMD('c:\temp\welcome.pdf')

Thanx, PLA

I wish to run the PDF reader located on the users PC's from the iSeries. The
problem is knowing the path the reader is located. I dont wish to hardcode
the path, since it can be different on each PC.

If I went to each pc, did a start/run and typed in AcroRd32.exe, it would
run. Is there a way I could utilitize the logic that windows start/run uses,
or a way to get a registered applications path.

Thanks.
