The information in Options is dependent on data supplied in the Command Line. For instance,
you cannot type notepad.exe, which is the Notepad program, in the Command Line and then type
the name of a DOC file, such as script.doc, in Options because Notepad cannot open Word DOC
files. (Notepad can be used to open TXT files and view the source of HTML files.)

Shortcut Button Images
Custom toolbars have shortcut buttons that, like standard toolbar buttons, require some type of
image or icon used to represent the button’s purpose. When creating a shortcut button, you can
select an image that will appear on the button from the standard iNEWS list, or you can import
an image. The same image can be used on several buttons.
Session: Select the session you want the button to open.
Command Line: Type the keyboard shortcut or name for the command or program you want
the button to open. For instance:
iexplore.exe
.
Options: Type an additional Web address or filename to open, such as
www.avid.com
.
Macro: Type the macro commands you want the button to perform. For more
information on writing macros, see
“Creating a Macro” on page 172.
