DeltaV Live link to Process History View

I am trying to use a button to open a PHV chart file.

I can get the button to successfully open the PHV chart file if the file in the root CHARTS folder.

Button

  Action - Open Application

 DeltaV Application - True

DeltaV Application Name - PHV

Command Arguments - "CDU_APC"

However, I am not sure what syntax to use in the Command Arguments field if the PHV file is in a sub-folder under the CHARTS directory.  For instance if the file is in CHARTS/CDU/CDU_APC.

Any thoughts?

  Hello Chris.
  
  The syntaxis is as follow:
  When specifying a folder path on Command Arguments, make sure to use an escape character. For example, to specify the path D:\Folder1\test_doc.txt, use D:\\Folder1\\test_doc.txt.
  
  Best regards.
  Francisco.
