[thelist] Running an .exe from a ListBox (Flash UI Compnent)

Hi all,
I have the following XML file feeding a ListBox component:

<applications>
    <software name="Adobe Reader 6.01">
       <location>AdobeReader601.exe</location>
    </software>
    ...
</applications>

I've been successful in getting the name of the program to display in 
the ListBox, but I'd like to get the exe to run when the user clicks on 
the name of the application. I've already set "label=name;data=location" 
in the Bindings for the XML Connector and ListBox.

What I need now is essentially an onClick function to run the 
corresponding exe. The Flash application is designed in the Slide Show 
Presentation mode, by the way. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
