I'm doing some DDE work with Word Perfect. If it's not already running, my FFP6 application will start the Word Perfect EXE so I can execute the DDE commands.

I'd like to make it a little more flexible, and not hard-code the path to Word Perfect into my application. Clearly, the OS knows where the application is, because it launches it when I double-click on a document.

In NT4 workstation or Win9x, how can I launch WP from VFP without knowing the path to the EXE?

TIA
