ausbob 0 Posted July 26, 2007 I'm not sure if I am in the right forum however I am trying to open an image file in its own program through a filemaker script. Is this possible Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkWilson 0 Posted July 26, 2007 What is the image program/file path? Is the image in a container field or is it a reference to an image file? Does the image file have any reference to FileMaker? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ausbob 0 Posted July 26, 2007 The image is in a container field linked via imagewin:c:/images/filename. I dont really understand what you mean by "the image has any reference to filemaker, but my guess to this would be no. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkWilson 0 Posted July 28, 2007 You can use something similar to... Open URL[No dialogue; Trim( Substitute( Substitute( MiddleValues ( Image::Image_c ; ValueCount( Image::Image_c ) ; 1 ) ; "imagewin:/" ; "" ) ; "¶" ; "" ) )] or something similar to... Send Event["aevt"; "odoc"; """ & "C:/Program Files/QuickTime/PictureViewer.exe" & "" "" & Trim( Substitute( Substitute( MiddleValues ( Image::Image_c ; ValueCount( Image::Image_c ) ; 1 ) ; "imagewin:/" ; "" ) ; "¶" ; "" ) ) & """ ] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
