f$Application (f$Anwendung)

f$Application (f$Anwendung)

Execute another system application. Arguments can be entered additionally if the target application allows that.

The decision tables continue to be executed without waiting for the application to end - the function f$WaitExecute can be used for the latter.

Remarks on Microsoft Windows:

• The program name entered can, but does not have to, contain a path entry. If it is missing, the program is searched for using the usual Windows rules (standard system path).

• If the application is already opened, it depends on the applicable application if the open window is used or if a separate new window is opened.

Please note that, when entering a path in the file name, the character "\" must be entered twice ("\\").

Hint:

If a program path does not recognize an application or is different between computers, the application can also be started using the program linked to the file extension in Windows with the f$Execute command.
