I am new to Vox commando and i have done some searching but i cant find a way to use windows shell commands in Vox can someone please help me.
I am trying to give Vox a command such as Open Control panel and have the action be something like  Launch.openfile or Launch.RawParam - ::{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002b30309d}.
but i can figure out a way to make it work.

Hi Tripper.  How would you normally do this from the command line?

well for instance using rainmeter the commands are used with button clicks in the .ini file .... such as
ButtonRight1="Control Panel"
ButtonRight1Path=::{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002b30309d}
or using it in Mega vioce command they have it as the action in their shell commands section.
yes i know im not to bright in the programing part of this.

Or this might be a better example of what a rainmeter command would be
LeftMouseDownAction= !Execute ["::{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002b30309d}"]

Well, I'm not too familiar with this stuff but these might help.  There might be a better way but at the moment I don't know of one.

This also works:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<!--VoxCommando 2.0.0.0-->

    </params>
    <cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
  </action>
</command>

This uses another method.  I'm not sure if it covers the same stuff or not.  More info about the params you can try is here:
