    Question

    Is it at all possible to run a program using the shell command, get get its hWnd without knowing its caption etc??? Or is there another command which will let you run an exe, and also get the shell command?
    Thanx

    'Result is a handle to the shelled process
    dim Result as long

    Result = Shell(FileWhichYouWantToShellExecute, vbWindowSize)

    look for SHELL in your vb helpfile
