Run & ShellExecute not working...

[dazza]

I am passing the correct file name and path yet (for some reason) the warning 'Cannot find this executable' pops up.

I expect it's priviledges as I am working on secure machines.

Is there a jazzy way of bringing up the Start->Run window so I can pass in the path/exe? I don't really want to use clicks and sends.

Many thanks

Hi dazza.

Witout src i cannot say where is your prob.

But you can try this ways too:

Run("cmd.exe /c " & """" & "PATH TO YOUR EXE FILE" & """",@ScriptDir,@SW_HIDE)
ShellExecute("""" &"yourfile.exe"& """")

It will solve this problem.

Hope it helps.

I expect the problem is that you are not using the full path to the executable.

Many thanks.

Plenty to work with.

Oh, and I hope you're not confusing the working directory parameter as the path to the executable. You need to actually run "C:\Windows\notepad.exe" or whatever the target is.
