Although slightly different, after trying several different variations, this seems to work for me: on mouseUp set the defaultFolder to "C:\crc32\" --> must set the folder location to the same as crc32.exe put "crc32.exe" into tCommand put " readme.txt > c:\crc32\output.txt" into tArg put tCommand & tArg into tShellText get shell (tCommand) get URL "file:c:\crc32\output.txt" put it end mouseUp Note the importance of setting the folder path to the location of crc32.exe Best regards, David C. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
