Does anyone know how to launch the Sales Order UI after importing a sales order with VI?

SUGGESTED

We use VI quite extensively and it works great. We use it to import many of our orders. After the VI jobs run, we open the sales order entry screen and enter the sales order number to do final editing and to print/email.

Does anyone know how to add a command to launch the Sales Order UI after the job has imported? Also, could the command take a parameter and actually open the imported order?

I tried a couple of iterations, like "..\SO\SO_SalesOrder_ui.pvc" after completion, but it just crashes.

Thanks everyone!!!

    I can't think of any way that VI would be able to handle something like this. 

    I have done something similar with AP Invoices and Journal Entries using Business Object Interface.  You can launch a screen programatically and even open a specific record.  The only problem I had dealt with batches.  I was never able to find a way to open a record that had batching enabled.  For BOI, you will need programming experience.  I use C# .NET, but you can use pretty much any language you want if you know how.  It is built for vbs and vb.net, though.
