Hi, I have a runtime with a script that exports the contents of a container to the temporary path and automatically opens the file.

 

Tesing in my Windows 7 computer works fine.

 

Testing on a second machine with Windows Vista works weird: If the container has a Word (.doc) file, it creates the temp file and opens fine (with Microsoft Word). If the container has a .pdf, it creates the temp file but doesn't automatically open it. If I go to the temp path it shows the file and I can open it directly (double clicking), it opens up with Reader.

 

Does anyone know if the problem is related to the runtime, the computer or the os (Vista)?

 

Thanks.

what is the full path you are using? or more correctly, what is the calculated path you are using?

Get ( TemporaryPath ) & $randomName & $ext ( "File extension" which I get from the file ).

 

And like I said, the runtime is creating the file without any issues, I can open the file directly from the Temp path (on the machine with the problem).
