Number of auto generated service tickets: []: Enter the number (0-3, 0 = manually) of service tickets to be auto-generated.

3.5.1.15 Run Tab

This is the Guest Program Options window Run tab:

The pane will show specified programs (initially none) as records in a table with these column contents:

· Description: The Run Program drop-down menu program description.

Add…: Click this button to show this window:

File

Type a descriptive text in the Description field. This text will appear on the menu.

File name

Under File name, make sure that the Local file name option has been selected and then click the Browse button to locate the program .exe file.

When the program file is added, the Global file name where the absolute path has been replaced with environment variables is automatically added. This is especially helpful if your computers are running different Windows platforms.

Example of a Local file name and the corresponding Global file name:

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe

%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe

Tip: Once you have added a program under Local file name and the Global file name has been added automatically, select the Global file name option button so that you do not have to consider which operating system version or operating system language Host computers are using.

Command line switches: If the selected program needs to be started using command line switches, use the Command line switches field to type those. This could for example be starting Internet Explorer with a specific address or for Adobe Acrobat Reader, the name of the document to read.

Run

Under Run, select Normal, Maximized or Minimized to define how the program should start when opened from the Run Program button on the toolbar or from the Run Program command on the Connection menu.

Properties...: Select a record in the pane and click this button to show its properties in the Run window to edit them.

Delete: Select a record in the pane and click this button to delete it.
