Starting an external program with parameters

[Guest MBachl]

Hi,

I would like to start an external program, like that

Run ("C:\Program Files\Notes\nlnotes.exe=d:\data\notes\data\notes.ini")

After that I get an error messasege, that the external program could not be found. If I use this syntax with a shortcut it works fine.

regards

Martin

try adding a space before the "="

Run ("C:\Program Files\Notes\nlnotes.exe =d:\data\notes\data\notes.ini")

You are not paying attention. I would have to check to be sure but I'm reasonably confident we didn't even have ShellExecute() back when this was an active thread (2003).

No need to appologize. It happens.

I answered your question in Chat so let's just let them die a natural death.
