I've suffered many an hour solving problems in Director.

well.. the piece opens up a load of external files, the lingo for each file as a behaviour. All works well.. uses Shellexec.exe in the open command, so just opens the file with whatever app is resident & associated on the PC. All fine so far.

Now, to keep things neat I'd placed all the files in a subdirectory. Word docs, pdf still open fine. However .xls and .ppt fail..

Hmm?
