How to integrate batch file with application modular?

How to integrate batch file with application modular in object studio? We are trying to launch an application through batch file and unable to launch it in application modular.

Hemant, Previously when I've worked with a batch file I never launched it from the Application Modeller. I can't remember the reason why. However method below: Key stroke 'Windows Key+R' (or just windows key if WIN7+) and send the path to the batch file via keystroke 'CTRL+V' You should then be able to just attach to an 'already running' application. Tom. (thinking about it, It was probably over a citrix session, so I was forced run launch batch file in such a method)

Hi Hermant, There is another option if you are looking to run an independent .bat file. Within any process you can call a Business Object (B.O.) by the name of: Utility Environment; "Start Process" You can use this B.O. to run any .bat file if you use the following inputs: - Application: C:\Test Folder\Test\NAME OF BAT FILE"".bat -Arguments: C:\Test Folder\Test\"NAME OF BAT FILE"".bat If you replace the drive & folder names you should be able to get the .bat file to work. We use ours as a way of setting a default printer when starting any of our processes. James
