Hi,

I wonder if anyone could possibly help. I am trying to launch external applications on the P900 using the Runtime.getRuntime() command and not having much success.

I have read the thread in this forum on this subject, but can't seem to get the things they suggest to work. The only app I can get to work is Browser.app but can't seem to pass it a URL.

I think I may also be struggling with the escape characters that are used for a blank space in the filenames.

If anyone has an example link of code using getRuntime() on the P800/P900 they could post, that would be great.

Many Thanks,

Pete

Just to expand on what I wrote above. The application I am trying to launch (e.g. the audio player) appears to load 'momentarily' but then returns back to the main PJava app I am running.
