It should work. Did you try it like this?:

execute file "My Program.exe","",""

That will execute the file in the same directory with no commandline. Or it could be:

execute file "My Program.exe","",Get Dir$()

To look for it in the absolute directory rather than local.

dont forget the wait flag, its useful if you want your exe to wait until the shelled exe has exited.



Its 9/11 - but its FAKE 9/11 Ts=SQRT(Df/16)
