Help!!!

Rather than open a new thread, can someone please remind me how to use the CONTENTS of a file as a pointer...

To explain

I have a file located at RAM:somedata.dat

That file contains the following string DH0:PROJECTS/someproject.prj

In my script I want to do something like...

IF EXISTS RAM:somedata.dat
someapp.exe (the contents of)RAM:somedata.dat
EndIF

with the end result being ..

someapp.exe DH0:PROJECTS/someproject.prj

someapp.exe is an application which needs someproject.prj to work with.

In the 90's I would have sorted this in seconds, but time & alcohol has taken it's toll on my grey matter.

TIA for any help
