Folder to trigger action on Windows Disco Octopus <discooctopus[ at ]gmail.com> 10.07.2007 22:14:08 Hi, I would like to know if the following is possible on a Windows PC.... I want to have a particular folder on my PC that I can drop a file into. When the file gets dropped into this particular folder, I want a particular application to start up. Is there a way to do this without having to poll this particular folder? Thanks
