You are god if you can help me solve this...

Ok, maybe not. So I balantly tricked you into reading this.. sue me.

How would you launch "C:\blah.exe -blah -setting 2" in vb?

Its a shame that your skill does not run to aksing questions clearly.

So what do you need to know. Do you want to know how to retrieve the command line arguments passed to your VB program, or do you want to know how to call a program and pass it some arguments.

'to get command line arguments passed to your app
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim strCommand As String
    
    strCommand = Command
End Sub

'to call a program from vb with arguments
Shell "c:\blah.exe arg1 arg3"
