Description

If a dialog box is associated with the command, it appears and the command script blocks other edits until the user closes the dialog box. This function provides the ability to call a command from another extension file.
This function can be called within the objectTag() function, from any script in a command file, or from the Property inspector file.
Arguments
commandFile, {commandArg1}, {commandArg2},...{commandArgN}
The commandFile argument is a filename in the Configuration/Commands folder.
The remaining arguments, commandArg1, commandArg2, and so on, which are optional, pass to the receiveArguments() function in the commandFile argument.
Returns
Nothing.
Example
You can write a custom Property inspector for tables that lets users get to the Format Table command from a button on the inspector by calling the following function from the button’s onClick event handler:
function callFormatTable(){ dreamweaver.runCommand('Format Table.htm'); }
