Run file that is not in the My Project folder.

[Ewertongba99]

I need to run a file that is on the network, but whenever I try to add it to run it the autoplay adds the file to my project, but I don't want it to add, I just want it to run the file that is on the network, I'm using google translator, sorry for english.

try File.Run

"\\\\ server_name\\ folder \\ yourfile.exe

I would like to know if there is a way to execute an external file (which is not in the Docs folder) the file is in the following path


//\sala\SistemaGuarabira\Apresentacoes\Painel\Office \Comandos\Excel.exe

But every time I select Excel.exe it adds that file to the Docs folder. Is there any code that can do this?

Herrin answered your other post

you could try this - is sala your network drive?

path = "\\\\ sala\\SistemaGuarabira\\Apresentacoes\\Painel\\Office\\Comandos\[COLOR=#27ae60]\Excel.exe"[/COLOR]
Shell.Execute(path, "open", "", "", SW_SHOWNORMAL, false);

use file find to check that your path is correct, but yes you can run/execute external fie
