The question in such a context seems to be "what executable should I use for this processing functionality?". In a py2exe like environment, it might not be unreasonable to assume that if a custom executable is to be used, that custom executable may have a different command-line or other special requirements. Further, I could imagine a system that uses an alternative way of starting processes (eg, 'distributed COM') where the concept of 'executable' (or even 'command-line') don't make much sense. So it seems that maybe simply "setExecutable()" isn't the correct Cheers, Mark _______________________________________________ You must Sign in before you can post messages.
