I just couldn't resist, sorry :trout:

Anyway, if you search a bit with the keywords exe, or fscommand, you should find plenty of interesting info :)

Also, with windows can't you just specify the prog. location in a 'getURL' statement?

Pom -- FSCommand sends the command to the host of the Flash player right ? So if you view the SWF in a HTML page, won't the page ask to download the exe instead of launching it ? Just a thought ...
