The example below opens a specific Microsoft Access database within a published application. This methodology can be applied to any application.

1. Run the Published Application Manager wizard to browse for the MSAccess.exe executable and click OK.

2. Add one space and the path of the actual file (enclose the path in quotes if needed).

This behavior can also be used to point the path to a remote mapped drive. Configuration information may be altered by clicking the Edit Configuration button on the Servers tab when viewing the properties of the published application.

Example:

Example:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSAccess.exe C:\folder\example.mdb

NOTE: For files with spaces in the name. Put the File to be opened in quotes as well. Example: "my example.mdb"

Example:

M:\WINNT\system32\mmc.exe /s "M:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\BINN\SQL Server Enterprise Manager.MSC"

Example: When GSNW needs to be made available to users without giving them access to the Control Panel.

a. Publish Cmd.exe as a published application through Published Application Manager.

b. Run this command:

Control NWC.CPL

c. The Gateway Services for NetWare dialog box opens.

d. Configure the user as required.

Refer to Microsoft article How to Run Control Panel Tools by Typing a Command.

None of this has anything to do with us, someone else is responsible for the entire thing, and we have no idea who or why. We do not know anything about it. It may be alien life forms for all we know: we haven't a clue. You cannot blame us for anything that may result from your visit. That was entirely your own personal choice, made by you of your own volition, and without our knowledge. We do not, after all, have any control over you and cannot by any stretch of the imagination be expected to accept or acknowledge, be it legally or morally, any accountability for decisions made by you on an independent basis, utilizing your own free will, and without our intervention. We are therefore in no way, shape, or form answerable to anyone for any consequences arising from the aforementioned or indeed any other actions, similar or otherwise, because it was not us that did, or did not do anything. It is not even remotely our fault, and we are in no way prepared or willing to accept any liability, not even slightly, ever. We are, in fact completely and utterly blameless, in that it is definitely not our concern, and no blame can possibly be laid at our doorstep, even if we had one, the possession of which we hereby reserve as being entirely our own free choice. The onus is not on us at all, and furthermore, never has been. The entire matter is wholly beyond our control, and completely out of our hands, each of which are washed scrupulously clean of the whole business. We are not accountable for anything at all, and we hereby categorically deny all responsibility for all that has ever, or will ever happen. Our innocence is therefore wholly beyond doubt and absolutely unimpeachable, and so cannot, under even the remotest or unlikeliest circumstances, be brought into question. By clicking either on a link on this site, clicking on a link that leads to this site, or by arriving at this site by natural or supernatural means, you are in effect accepting responsibility for the fact that it is all entirely your own fault, down to the most miniscule detail, and that you are wholly accountable for whatever outcome may arise as a consequence of the aforementioned action or actions insofar as they were undertaken personally by you on an entirely voluntary basis and without any persuasion, coercion or influence from any party or parties other than yourself. Don't come sniveling to us, we are only figments of your imagination. I also agree that if I am ever with a contributor to this website during mealtimes I agree to pay for any super-sizing of their meal, or at least a nice dessert or one of those foo-foo drinks with an umbrella or a monkey. By admitting to have seen the worthless spineless drivel on this website (also known as content)

I Agree Wholeheartedly and Without Reservation to the above. (Except maybe for that part about the monkey.)

No. Really, I do agree.
