When using InTouch to interact with other Windows applications, it is usually required to open the application from InTouch. This can be achieved with an InTouch script function.

StartApp WinAppName;

WinAppName: The windows application name. This can be a literal string value, message tag, or locally declared script message variable.

Examples:

{Start Microsoft Excel}
StartApp “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Excel.exe”

{Start Microsoft Excel, and open a spreadsheet}
StartApp “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Excel.exe C:\SpreadsheetLocation\Spreadheet.XLS”
