Macro to open a program

[carlos_m_gil_p]

Hello boys how are you.

I wanted to consult them, if someone can tell me how to create a macro to open an external program.

I want to create a new button and when I click on the button, I open an external program. Word, excel, paint or any external program that I need to open.

Beforehand thank you very much.
Excuse my English, I only speak Spanish.

SHELL command RUN (see also acad.pgp)

or Lispfunction STARTAPP [F1] for help

Hi, Betreff, how are you?

I currently use the startapp function.
But I want to configure a button so I do not have to pass my lisps.

Thanks for the help.

Hello maratovich.
Thank you very much, it worked very well.

Another question.
Is there any way to create a shortcut button?

Thank you.

I did not understand what and where to create?

[carlos_m_gil_p]

I created the button with the macro that you told me.
Now I want to know if to that button that I create, I can place a keyboard shortcut.

Excuse my English, I only speak Spanish. 😞

Thanks for your help.
