Client_host cmd problem

DipNov 24 2008 — edited Jun 26 2013
Hello.
I want to open excel file on client. File is on another computer. I open the file with clien_host and cmd. The problem is, that cmd window stays opened.

I open file like:
CLIENT_HOST('cmd /c ' || LC$Target);
LC$Target is like //Linux_comp/dir/file.xls.

If i run this, excel starts but the cmd window stays on. When i close excel, cmd closes.


How can i solve this problem?

If i run file like
CLIENT_HOST('cmd /c start c:\Dir\Dir\Excel.exe ' || LC$Target);

cmd window closes after excel is started.

Why is that?
I need 1st version, because not every user has the same excel path.

Any help?


Thanks.
