Does anyone have a bit of source code in either Pascal or Modula-2 that
can launch an external application (like MSWord, say). I have tried using
the assembler calls but this just hangs my Mac.

I have used Launch() from the Segment Loader but this only works when
you're using Finder, never works under MultiFinder.

Any ideas?

Thanks in Advance,
