1. Launching a document with it's default viewer
Hey!
The subject line pretty much says it all> I want to launch a named
document using it's default viewer from a win32lib program, system()
will do it but it brings up an ugly console window...

Howdy!
Give this piece of code a whirl. It uses shellExecute from win32lib.ew.
This should give you some idea of how to do what you're wanting ... 
-- How to launch something with shellExecute
include win32lib.ew
constant
window = create(Window, "Launch Euphoria site", 0, Default, Default,
Default, Default, 0),
btn = create(Button, "Let's see site", window, 0, 0, 100, 100, 0)
procedure onClick_btn()
shellExecute("Open", "www.rapidEuphoria.com", SW_SHOWNORMAL)
end procedure
onClick[btn] = routine_id("onClick_btn")
WinMain(window, Normal)
