Using the Remote DB Spy and Remote Output Window (LogWin)

Is there a way to programmically activate the DB Spy and/or LogWin from within an IWS app?
It could really be handy to create a button to bring up those tools!

Hello @LarGriff,

Just add a button to your screen and add the Hyperlink animation to it. In the "URL" field, put the path and filename for "DatabaseSpyExt.exe" and "LogWinExt.exe" located in the \Bin folder of your InduSoft installation. Use the IP of your local machine to connect.

I ended up using the following script on a button:

If $WinexecIsRunning($iLogWinHandle) <> 1 Then
$WinExec("C:\Program Files (x86)\Wonderware InduSoft Web Studio v8.0\Bin\LogWinExt.exe", 1, 0, "iLogWinHandle")
End If
