Hello everyone, I am trying to make an app and it works fine, but when I compile it to a standalone app winopen() will not work. Any ideas?
I have included the winopen.m during packeging and also used full Path, but still it does not work.

Hi!
what is the format of the file you are trying to open ? and on which operating system you are testing the App?
Thanks

I've packaged it (winopen) in another app and it works fine. Looking at the above code snippet, I'd hypothesize your problem is that you're not using the fully-qualified filename to open and so it isn't finding the file -- but winopen unfortunately doesn't include any return parameter to report on its success in that regards; you could(*) do an exist on the filename first to ensure it does exist and is found first.
(*) Probably "should" instead of "could" is more appropriate
