The original Summary I sent on this worked great for users using
OpenWindows, but not for CDE users.  This solution works great with CDE.

In the file

/usr/dt/appconfig/types/C/solaris.dt

where C is the locale you are using.

I have the following entries - Solaris 2.7 defaults I think - which I
believe
are the actions. You may need to point the EXEC_STRING to your actual
executable.

Cheers,
Ian
