Usually you type the name of the application's executable.
You may - if the executable is not found in the PATH - need the full path to
the executable.
For example.. Outlook 2003..
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\Outlook.exe
(%ProgramFiles% is an environment variable - it simply stores the location
of the systems Program Files directory - usually C:\Program Files.)
