Hi, abalmahmood, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  The Run/Execute function will attempt to "run" whatever is in the cell.  Basically, it would be like pasting the contents of the cell into the standard Windows Run prompt and pressing Enter.  So, you can use it for things like:

A file or folder e.g.: c:\path\to\my.exe, c:\path\to\image.png
A URI/URL with "://" in it e.g. http://www.site.com
'mailto:' links e.g. mailto:you@me.com

Does that make sense?
