Windows - Start - Run

When we click on the start button, then click on Run, a dialog box will be opened. We then will browse
or type a filename with or without the full path and click OK.

That file gets opened.

Now, the question is which windows exe/utility will take the file name (with or wthout full path) that
we have entered, as a parameter and opens that file depending on the extension??

Please get back to me as soon as possible.

Thank you very much for your response in advance.

You can use the SHELL command to do essentially the same thing. Here is an example:

private Sub Command1_Click()
Shell "C:\Windows\Notepad.exe C:\AutoExec.Bat"
End Sub



This code starts Notepad telling Notepad to edit the Autoexec.bat file.
