- I want to execute an application from within another
- application using the WinExec function. (Specific to
- MS Windows programming, I know) The problem is
- I want to, for example, have the user type in the
- filename of a bitmap file, and it's associated application
- should execute. (ie paintbrush) The file associations
- are made from the file manager of course. How do I
- do this?
