Question

From within Captivate 9 executable, need to launch another Captivate executable located in the same folder.

Can I do this with some sort of relative addressing instead of supplying a specific file location? (Don't know what the ultimate destination of the files will be at this point.)

If the target file is sitting in the same folder as the file that calls it, then usually all you need is the target file name as your relative link.

However, the Open URL or File action often doesn't work due to many security issues. Even when you DO know the location of the other EXE file, it's usually not going to work on end user systems because antivirus checkers will likely prevent this.
