Inbuilt Functionality to Open any file with its assocaited Application in pocket PC

[gurtejgenius]

Hi,
Is there and Inbuilt Functionality or API that I can use to Open any file with its assocaited Application in pocket PC or WIN Mobile (in C#.NET).
For ex:
1. If there is Image file(JPG or BMP), if user clicks it, It automaticaly opens up In Image\Picture Viewer.
2. If there is Word(*.doc), if user clicks it It automaticaly opens up In Word applcaition, same is the case with Excel(*.xls) and so on.

If there is any API(Inbuilt functionality) that I can use or DO I need to write my own code to invoke the relevant Executable assocaited with a particular application and how to do it.

Regards,
Gurtej

Hi there,

I think this is what you are looking for:

string cabFile = @"Program Files\MyApp\myFileName.jpg";
Process opener = new Process();
opener.StartInfo.FileName = cabFile;
opener.StartInfo.Verb = "Open";
opener.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
opener.Start();
 

Hope this helps,

Mark
