when to use the command InvokeApplication and SystemUtil.Run - srivaas.b - 12-20-2010
May I know when to use the command InvokeApplication and SystemUtil.Run
RE: when to use the command InvokeApplication and SystemUtil.Run - bfakruddin - 12-23-2010
Invokeapplication "Path of .exe files"
systemutil.run "path of exe file or url",[parameters],etc., check the syntax in QTP
Here invokeapplication command is used to invoke only executable files.
Systemutil.run is used to invoke browsers with desired url or executable files... and we can pass parameters to application with this command, we can handle invoked application position [maximised,active, inactive etc.,] with this command.
go to QTP help... and try with different combinations on systemutil.run command. you'll get more

Invokeapplication is mostly used for backward compability below(QTP 6)
Syntax : InvokeApplication("Full URL as Parameter")
Systemutil.run
Syntax : SystemUtil.Run ( FileName, Parameters, Path, Operation )
Note : When you specify an application to open using the Record and Run Settings dialog box, QuickTest does not add a SystemUtil.Run statement to your test.
