I want to do a simple thing (so I thought). I want to simply open (launch) an external program from an EA. (not in the EA)
So just for exampe purposes. Let us say I wanted to open Microsoft word when a certain thing happens in the EA.
I have doen this before but I cannot find the script, I have spent 2 hours searching the web. Next time I will save the code somewhere safe!
