i am creating a login screen of sorts. i have 2 edit fields (with the
default names) and a continue button. when the button is clicked, i want the
screen to launch a windows application. all i need it to do is as if it were
at a command prompt and it typed : c:\tmnode\tm.exe abc 123

where "abc" is edit box 1, and "123" is the data that is captured from edit
box 2.

i can't seem to find any help in the online manuals, but it is more than
possible that i am not looking in the right area.

would any of you know where to look? or even just have the code i need????

any help would be extreamly appreciated.
