Auto open file

Hello All,

I am considering moving my server 19 to the cloud server. I am currently using the trial version. With my server 19 set up, I have a "startup" file that automatically launches the database from the server. I made a shortcut which I can put our company logo as the icon so all the user has to do is double click it and the database opens. 

I can't seem to find a way to do this with the cloud server. The current one is a simple script with an open file in it (see attached). The cloud has a multiple step that opens the host and then you need to click on the file and then sign in to the Claris ID screen. 

Is there a way to have an initialization file that will skip all that?

In the words or the immortal Emily Litella...........never mind!

I was able to change the open file step and make it work. For some reason it didn't at first. I am not sure what I did wrong but I added another file went to hosts and picked it and this time it worked.
