If im right here, using shellexecute with parameters is just like creating a shortcut and adding it right there?

so using this code:
VB Code:
  1. ShellExecute me.hwnd, vbNullString, app.path & "\yay.exe", " -time 12", vbNullString, 1
is the same as right clicking yay.exe and adding into the properties bar -time 12?

Well ive never had a problem until now, and the exe i have is crashing. I cant post it because of copyright etc etc...Hoping someone here knows a resolution to it?
