Problems calling my tv with Shell()

**HoSs** · May 29th, 2000, 01:04 PM

I have Video Wonder ProII tv card software, and It won't work when I try to start it from vb with the Shell() function, it says

Run-Time Error '5':
Invalid procedure call or argument

good night

oh, yeah, here's my code:

Code:

Private Sub Label1_Click()
Dim RetVal
RetVal = Shell("C:\VWPRO2\HDTV.EXE", 4)
End Sub

What happens if you type:
HDTV.EXE
from a DOS prompt in the
C:\VWPRO2\>
directory?
