Ed,
I get a "Cannot find entry point ShellExecute in the DLL" error when trying that. Is this a version thing or just me butchering the attempt? Is there a handy resouce for the uninitiated regarding the Win32 API calls?
Regards, Renoir
>>David, I tried the following and, likely due to my misunderstanding of API calls and associated programs, I get an error because it can't find the ShellExecute program. Is this in a fox tools library? Regards, Renoir
