launch an exe from a swf

For a long time I have played with anything whatsoever in FLASH, so it may not be a solution.

We have some exe files with the content of the training that we host on our database.  We want to make them play since a swf that opens on a new slide, a button of completion when the exe reading ends.  We usually use Captivate, but I'm not having any luck have Captivate launch exe files, so I thought I'd see what you all fly away.

Thank you

It makes more sense.

Unfortunately something as simple that the setting of the end action to open a file or a URL would nothing more than what Flash would do with navigateToURL(). If you specify the .exe of the course if he tries to load this .exe in a browser which will probably just ask you to save the .exe (like Chrome). To my limited knowledge of Captivate, there are no simple built in interaction capable of launching an .exe, especially not since a SWF as he always limited the capabilities of SWFs. Launch of executable files is not an ability to a SWF file, without worrying about whether Flash or Captivate made. And you couldn't watch the process of the EXE for a SWF to know when it ends without worrying.

Are executable files, you must run simply other projectors Captivate or Flash projectors and if so you have access to the source files for them? If you can get just those published in SWF, then you will not need to launch an executable at all. It is the ideal way.

If this isn't the case, then I think that you are up a Creek without a paddle without invoking an advanced solution. This goes against what seems to be your desire, however, who should not use executable files, but only an executable with permission to run a process is able to start one of these .exe.

For example, you could publish your course in format SWF from Captivate. You can import this SWF in a Flash project and then use the features of Flash/AIR. You have to find a way to detect the end of a Flash of Captivate race by recovering to issue something could detect Flash/AIR (maybe it's the last frame of the SWF file or something else easy, or you might need a tip action). Once that alerts you Flash/AIR that the quiz is over, AIR would be able to launch an executable.

Apart from that I don't see what you want as possible with Flash. The executables are the OS-level security and SWF is just not capable.
