There are many ways of doing this. Here are two - 1. The first approach is a bit easier than the second. The script is written in the Applet_Load event of the Applet Browser Script. You can also invoke the executable file from a button click etc... Script function Applet_Load () { //Instantiate an ActiveX shell Objext. var wshell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell"); var oFSO = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"); //the path of where this file has been installed sDirectory = "C:\\PROGRA~1\\WINDOW~1\\ACCESS~1\\"; sFile = "wordpad.exe"; sFilePath = sDirectory + sFile; //Check if the .exe file is installed if(oFSO.FileExists(sFilePath)) { execRet = wshell.Run(sFilePath, 3, false); } else { alert("You do not Wordpad Installed."); } oFSO = null; wshell = null; return ("CancelOperation"); } Now, When the applet loads wordpad will open. 2.

Hi Folks, Here is an Interesting tip shared by my Colleague Venus Hindocha about how to kill your Siebel.exe Process by avoiding the hassle of going to task manager and killing it there. you can use the foll command from Start -> Run or put it in a batch file taskkill /F /IM siebel.exe Some theory: Taskkill: Ends one or more tasks or processes. Processes can be killed by process ID or image name. Syntax: taskkill [/s Computer] [/u Domain\User [/p Password]]] [/fi FilterName] [/pid ProcessID]|[/im ImageName] [/f][/t] /f : Specifies that process(es) be forcefully terminated. This parameter is ignored for remote processes; all remote processes are forcefully terminated. /IM (ImageName): Specifies the image name of the process to be terminated. Use the wildcard (*) to specify all image names. More Details

In Siebel versions 6.x and 7.x, there are several number fields such as SR Number, Agreement Number, Asset Number, and Invoice Number which have the Pre Default Value = Expr: 'RowIdToRowIdNum ([Id])'. RowIdToRowIdNum is a function used in calculated expressions. This function converts an alphanumeric ROW_ID to a unique, pure numeric ROW_ID. The conversion is performed for digits and letters after or before the hyphen '-'. The formula used by RowIdToRowIdNum is the following: [Last digit or letter * 36^0] + [Second to last digit or letter * 36^1] + [Third to last digit or letter * 36^2] + ...+ [Second digit or letter * 36^n-1)] + [First digit or letter * 36^n] By design, values of letter A is 10, B is 11, C is 12 ... Y is 34, and Z is 35. Example 1: Take the example of ROW_ID = 1-5GYG0. Start converting from the last digit or letter from right to left, which is 0 in this case: 0 * 36^0 = 0 Conversion of second t...
