    Default run one of cast members ?!!

    hi all,

    I want to run an *.exe file that has been placed in my cast member.
    for example I added "mario.exe" in my cast member, now I want to
    execute it by mouseUp.
    is there any way ?

    tnx all
    farshid.

    The exe file has to be an external file. It will not work if you import it
    as a cast member. You can use the open command to launch 'mario.exe'. Look
    up 'open' in your help files.
