    Shell.. argg

    I have an exe and it works fine.

    I shell that exe from another program... it seems to shortcut...
    I mean.. it does half the stuff..

    What gives
    VB Code:
    1. Shell "F:\Files\Sales\Rep3\1036\ToolBoxes\AdminTool\ToolBox Flash.exe", vbnormalFocus

    It doesn't give an error..

    It simply works from ~clicking the exe~
    It works from VB design time.

    But it doesn`t work properly shelling it from another program..

    Any help?

    Have you tried ShellExecute instead of just Shell?
