body: <p>We have a projector application (.exe) compiled from AS3.  How can we start another (external) executable from the projector?</p>
  
  <p>This is the code...it does nothing visible.</p>
  
  <pre><code>//Play ACQ Demo
  Acq.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickAcq);
  function clickAcq(event:MouseEvent):void {
                  flash.system.fscommand("exec",".\\ACQ\\Acq.exe");
                  trace("ACQ clicked");
                  gotoAndPlay("Main");
  }
