Well, WinExec is included for backward compatibility. As far as ShellExecute() it sounds like you're using:

DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN Win32API

rather than:

DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN Shell32

The Shell32.DLL is not considered part of the Win32API. I have no idea why, but it isn't. There's a thread today with the proper full declaration.

hth,
