Hyperlinks: start external program with attributes

Hyperlinks in UR can be used to start external programs, i.e. 'C:\programxy.exe'. I just tried to add supplemental attributes, which does not seem to work:

Is it possible to set hyperlinks of this structure 'C:\pathname\progname.exe file.doc' ?

First I thought it was because of spaces in my path string (which it seems not to be after some experimentation), so I tried to put the program file path in ""-signs. The ""-signs seem to scramble up the hyperlinks, and without, the expression seems to be misinterpreted as an url (opening IE inside Ultra Recall).

Do I miss something or is this just not possible?
After all, I just found a workaround, packing the structure above in an (external) lnk file, and let the hyperlink point there...
