How to use OpenDocumentViewerInDefault in Labwindow/CVI 5.5

[KKTaqng]

Dear,

Sir/Madam

I've a difficulty of using this command : OpenDocumentViewerInDefault which i can proper run in LW 8.5 version but no available in LV 5.5 toolbox.fp.

Any other replacement method for open the text file for view?

thank

How about system("Notepad.exe document.txt"); or similar?

You can enter the full path of the text file as in:

system ("notepad.exe c:\\mydocs\\Dec2009\\quote.txt");

You can also use LaunchExecutable function if you do not want to wait for the notepad to be closed, to continue your program execution.

Hope this helps,
