Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here:


DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN "Shell32.dll" ;
INTEGER HWND, ;
STRING lpVerb, ;
STRING lpFile, ;
STRING lpParameters, ;
STRING lpDirectory, ;
LONG nShowCmd
=Shellexecute(0,"Open","d:\VFPAPPS\APPDOCS\PROCS.TXT","","",0)


I have this in a click event. I am trying to open up a text file in notepad but all it does is show an hour glass very briefly and then nothing. I am stumped.

Thanks,
George
