One of our IT guys has a batch file that launches a program... but the DOS window stays up the whole time.. and when you exit the program it launches it goes back to the batch file and closes.
he wants it to launch the app.. but close the batch file as soon as it launches.. not hang around until you close the app... any ideas?
try using
start
like start MyWinProgram.exe
I think that should work.
Perhaps this will do:
Shell "c:\test.bat", vbHide
yeah just found this also on computerhope.com.. this works... THANKSQuote:

well they were executing an app from a batch file directly off the drive.. so they weren't calling it from a VB appQuote:
