Hi everyone,
Can we call an external aplication on a toplip macro?

Hi,
There is presently no way to call directly an external executable from within a TopLIP macro... But you could do so if driving TopSolid with its COM API ...

Well I did do it... With a macro....
So copy the text below in a lip file. Put the complete path of the executable between the brackets. Convert to lob and add to the menu of TopSolid... Now you can run a executable from the interface of TopSolid.
Don't forget the QuitMacro command
----------------------
(
FUNCTION launch Exe
WHEN WHO WHAT
23/04/06 MJO creation
STK IN :
STK OUT :
)
"[path and name of the exe file]" 0 CreateProcess
QuitMacro
----------------------
