Open Explorer Window (WinXP)

[Fred P.]

Hello everyone,

is there a way to have a button that opens a windows explorer window in a specific directory?

I just found this in another Forum and answer my own question...

From: Wim Decorte

button #3:

Similar; als use the Send Event script step: cmd /c explorer.exe "c:thepath"

That solved it for me, but what I learned on accident, is that if you want to open an explorer window to a specific directory, i found I had to do this:

I created a button

added script send event

put the path you want to open in a field, and put that field in the calculation window

that button will open the folder in an explorer window.

Not sure why that works, but it does.
