Hi,

Under Win NT, this is what I do to lauch a my word document or any document

Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c \"" +
c:\docs\anydoc.anyextension+ "\"");

I know that the command processor is cmd.exe under NT and Comand.com under
Win9x. The problem is that Win9x does'nt do any link between extensions and
programs, so the command
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec("command /c \"" +
c:\docs\anydoc.anyextension+ "\"")
doesn't work.

Any idea ?
