are selected, the actions will be launched at the same time.

event is triggered. Use the browse button to the right of the

File Name

field to

select the file, or type in the name and path directly. If command line options

should be passed to the executable, enter those into the

field. A

directly, or you can browse for it. Select the

Run Minimized check box to

have the file executed in a minimized state. When minimized, it will appear as
