I have still found no way to launch a Mathematica application in the front-end, directly from an icon (or via cmd). On a previous thread: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.soft-sys.math.mathematica/browse_thread/thread/022d34bca79f6375?pli=1 the following were suggested, but they don't work. Any ideas? (cmd line) start foo.nb containing: UsingFrontEnd[ nb = NotebookOpen["MYFILETOEXECUTE.nb"]; SelectionMove[nb, All, Notebook]; FrontEndTokenExecute[nb, "EvaluateCells"]; ] or MathKernel -noprompt -run "(*some command*);Quit[]" On Jun 11, 12:58 pm, Chris Degnen <deg... at cwgsy.net> wrote: > Is there some way to start a Mathematica application from an icon? > I tried using a batch file to no avail, e.g. > > @echo off > "C:\Program Files\Wolfram Research\Mathematica\7.0\Mathematica.exe" - > run KernelExecute[Get["MyPrograms`StartDialog`"]] > > There are only two command-line options shown here:- > > http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/ref/program/Mathematica.html
