[comp.os.os2.misc] Launching FS or Windowed CUI Programs from Help

davepat@olivej.olivetti.com (David Patterson) (12/01/90)

Hi all!

I've got a small question here.  I would like to lauch a full screen,
(or windowed), program from a Help.IPF application that I've written.  
So far, it looks like this:

:link reftype=launch object='test.exe' data='arg1 arg2'.TEST:elink.

My problem seems to be that it does not seem possible to 'launch' a
full screen, (or windowed), application from the Help Manager.  This
*does* work when launching PM apps.  Is this a bug, or am I doing some
thing wrong??  I need a little help from all of the wisdom out there!!!

Thanks to all in advance!!!
