Hello to everyone. I just started reading this newsgroup, so please forgive me if this question has already been answered. What I want to do is this: I need to open an application using a button on a card in hypercard. Now, the problem is that I need to have it open to a particular document. To be specific, I want to push a button on a hypercard screen and have the mac find and load TrueBasic and a TrueBasic document (program) and run it. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Please reply in e-mail. Thanks in advance.

I need it to RUN. Any ideas?
