    Resolved [RESOLVED] Start VB app that returns control to shell but continues to run

    I have a need to start a very small VB6 program from the command (DOS) shell. The VB6 program should return "control" to the command shell but continue running without actually ending/exiting.

    I used to do a lot of VB6 programming many years ago but I seem to have forgotten all of the good stuff!

    Thanks in advance,

    LJW

    Cool Re: Start VB app that returns control to shell but continues to run

    Please disregard as I have figured out how to make this work.

    "START /B /MIN /D"Char(34)"C:\myDirectory\mySubdirectory"Char(34)" myProgram"

    Works like a champ!
