Is it possible to script to force the launch center to open?

In our legacy system, we have a "menu" file with buttons for each database that open the files remotely using the Open File script step. The obvious drawback here is when we add new databases, a new menu file has to be created and deployed to each user.

I would like to do away with this in favor of the native launch center when we upgrade to FileMaker 14, however IT is insisting that I still need a "menu" file, because that's how they've scripted the install of the software upgrade, and they don't want to rewrite their script.

So I'm trying to find if I can write a script to run "OnFirstWindowOpen" that will simply open the launch center to get around this.

Thanks,

~Courtney

Assuming that this can't be done, I've just made the script give the Open Remote dialog, which is similar, but not as user friendly.
