Launch Readme
Hello,
I want to launch a readme file at the end of the install. Unfortunately nothing on the forum worked and the article link is broken...
So I am just going to get a button to launch the readme when the user clicks on it. How can I assign this function to the button?
LaunchApp("Notepad.exe", "readme.txt");
I have searched the forum and the help and nothing explains how to do this. Please help.
Alternatively if theres a simple way to get the checkbox readme working then I'd like to know.

If you're talking about an InstallScript project, perhaps see this newsletter tip (PDF warning): http://www.macrovision.com/webdocuments/PDF/launch.pdf.
