How do i open another program when other program is opening.

ie. when I double click on a program call "example.exe", "example2.exe" have to open automatically.

shell "programname.exe"

should work.

You can even add

myInt = Shell "c:\Program2.exe", vbNormalFocus

'This will open the new program in front, not minimized or in any other state, and make myInt 1 if the program loads, and 0 if it fails.

As everyone has said. You compile your EXE to be called whatever. Your code would read as follows.

msgbox "Hello and welcome to my program",vbokonly,"Hi"
shell "c:\program files\microsoft office\winword.exe",vbnormal

not like that. if microsoft word opens, my program have to open tooo.

You are Canadian and yet.. U dont speak English ??
What people have given you is what you asked for in your statement above.

Anyway, never mind.
What you have to do is run your program in the background with a timer set to monitor all open windows.
When your program finds the handle of Micorosft Word, it can then intercept and do what you want it to do.
Search for help on using the findWindow or look at my post to Zero_Flaw and use the code. All you have to do is find what handle MS word uses.
