Action Scheduler - Open File or Application as an Action

Opening a file or application as an action in the Action Selector screen.

Click to make the "Open File/Application" tab the active tab and schedule when the action is to be performed.

To open a file
This option allows you to launch any form or file that has been established as a Related Item to the project. Related Items are added and displayed in the Related Items screen. For example, you may wish to have a task with a double-click action to open an HTML form, or to open a blank file of your tax return preparation software.

  • Click to select "launch data file".
  • Click on the "Browse" button to locate the file on your computer.
  • Click the OK button.


To open an application
  • Click to select "run application".
  • Either type in the path and location of the application or click on the "Browse" button to locate the application on your computer.


Optionally, when you select to run an application, command line parameters may be entered. Command line parameters are additional commands appended after the name of the application or command that modify the application or command's behavior when it runs. For example, a command line parameter may specify an application to open or may act as a filter for a command.

To enter a command line parameter for the selected application, type the information in the command line parameter input field. Additionally; cut, copy, paste, and insert token functionality is available for use by clicking on the respective buttons.
