Hello,

I have a manual for my app in .pdf format.

I want to make a link to myApp which resides in the Applications folder so that the user can launch myApp from the link in the manual.  
Is that possible? If so, how can I do that?

Thanks.

Lennox

See this: [https://forum.xojo.com/conversation/post/84937](https://forum.xojo.com/conversation/post/84937)  
Link is to Norman’s post for how to do it on Mac.  
The rest of the tread is for Windows.
