Function::Action
DocumentRun 
DocumentRun("MyDocument","PDF","C:\test\MyPdf.pdf")
DocumentRun("DQLName", "EMail", "pdfname.pdf", "EmailTo", "Subject" , "Body")
DocumentRun(name, "printer", printername)
This is a complimentary function to DocumentOpen(). The reason we have added this new function rather than amend DocumentOpen is due to issues with how its called and wanted functionality in DocumentOpen().
DocumentOpen use Post in WIndows for calling which is "fire and forget". This is ideal when you open a document in WIndows to use but not ideal when you want to produce a number of documents (export,print,pdf,email) in sequence.
DocumentRun() work like RunProcedure() and make sure the document is produced in sequence and finished before the next DocumentRun is executed. This will insure that your PDF generation or email is produced and sent in sequence.
