Serif. A horizontal dialog unit is 1/4 the average width of the font and a vertical
dialog unit is 1/8 the average height of the font.

Specify the exact dimensions of the control in dialog units. You can also resize
controls by dragging their handles, though this is not as precise.

Specifying Execute Program Settings

You can execute a program or link to a Web page when the end user clicks a hot text or
button control on a dialog box.
1. Open the Hot Text or Push Button Control Settings dialog box.
See Adding Hot Text Controls
page 133.
2. Mark the Execute Program option and click Edit.
The Execute Program Settings dialog box appears.
3. Complete the dialog box:
EXE Path
Specify the path to the application to be executed, including the application
executable. Use variable substitution (example: %MAINDIR% to refer to the
application directory) to ensure a valid path regardless the installation location.
Enter only the file name if you set the path in the Default Directory field
below.
Command Line
Enter the command-line options for the application (example: /S /Q). To link to
a Web page, enter the URL for the Web page (example: http://
www.sample.com).
Default Directory
Specify the directory where the application looks first when looking for a file. If
you entered only the file name in the EXE Path field, the file must exist in this
directory. You can also use variable substitution.
