Problem Running Application Using Shell Command

[Apollyon255]

Hi, running application in vb made my project easy by using Shell(appPath,windowstate) command.

now, i got a list of applications in my database with its correct path, the prob is, when i try to run those application one-by-one, they all run except for one application which is the most important applications for my client pc (because it is the most favorite application of my costumers), but the program runs abnormally when i run it using shell command, i checked the application's path, but it is correct, when i try to run that application w/o my prog, it ran normally, even its shortcut on my desktop, normal!

What probablly the problem is??

I think it's not with my code, cuz the other application runs normaly, except with that application. BDY, the application i am talkin' bout is a game application, do you know MU Online? by Mobius? it is an online game like Ragnarok!!! also ragnarok runs normally in my project, except really MU...

But when i compiled my program and create the exe file, i try to paste that exe program to the folder where MU resides, then i run my prog, then click the button, THEN iT RAN NORMALLY!?!?!... i check out the properties of MU's shortcut in my desktop, there I see 2 paths: the "target" path w/c is the whole path of the application including the mu.exe file, the other is the "start in" path, where also display the application path but excluding the mu.exe file.

i think the problem is within the application i am trying to run, not in my program, or maybe there is something wrong with the shell command, maybe parameters or sumthin'....

does anyone encounter this type of problem???

then if so, can you share it to this forum, so that i can find a solution to my problem... and it will gladly appreciated!!!... thanx....
