I have a small programme used as a launch for a number of other programmes. Mostly it works fine starting the programmes with
Shell "c:\progpath\progname.exe", 1
But one programme fails to start properly.
It starts OK from 'Start programmes ..', from Windows Explorer and from the DOS prompt.
I have checked starting using
retval = Shell("c:\progpath\progname.exe", 1)
if retval=0 etc
no obvious problem.

Anyone any ideas please
