vb6 Shell no longer works on Vista

[thebales]

I have an vb6 app that calls another vb6.exe. All works fine until installed on Vista. The code is:

Shell App.path & "\trigger.e xe" & procstring

I receive error 5 Invalid procedure call or argurment!

Shell app.path & "\trigger.e xe" works on Vista, but I cannot find a way to pass the parameters the executable needs on Vista.

It just may be because you do not have a space between exe and the string you are passing... exe" & somestring = exethisparamete rbeingpassed and thus your error. Now if that is a typo, then try shellexecute API...



Good Luck
