[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Sublaunch from Hypercard?

Is it possible to sublaunch another application from Hypercard?

Let's say I'd like to have a button called MS-Word and be able to
click it to launch MS-Word.  Is this possible?

Yes, just put the following in your btn script :
   open appname
or you could say
   open docname with appname
.That's all there is to it.
