Which directory is the EXE in. The syntax you're using tells the program to look in the same directory as the Authorware program. Try this:
JumpOutReturn(FileLocation^".\\mphil\\games\\seasons.exe","")--assuming the EXE is in the games directory
You may also need to experiment to see if you need one dot to go up one level in the directory structure or two dots.
