"progpath with blanks" "file path with blanks as
param to prog"
That is: apply the "rule" on each of the two components,
like this:
xxExec(<FONT
color=#ff00ff size=1>"<FONT face="Courier New" color=#ff00ff
size=1>\"C<FONT
size=1>:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office\\Excel.exe<FONT
face="Courier New" size=1>\<FONT face="Courier New" color=#ff00ff
size=1>" <FONT face="Courier New"
color=#ff00ff size=1>\"<FONT face="Courier New"
size=1>C:\\Program
Files\\AmiBroker\\ABTool\\Report.csv<FONT face="Courier New"
size=1>\"<FONT
color=#ff00ff size=1>");<FONT
face=Arial>
(Note: I've used CSV, change to XLS)
Between the both components must be a
blank.
But normally you can omit the program name: giving just
the file
will start the associated
program automatically.
