ShellExecute returns error on a link with parameters

[ahmd]

Ahmd, post a valid link of something like Word and I'll try it using the Process class in C#. If that works, we can drill down and see how it's implemented under the covers.

Arjay, I'm attaching a link to MS Word 2007 that exhibits this behavior.

Hello, can you tell me how you detect if something is a link ?

Please start a new thread for a new topic. To answer your question, I believe that all you need to do is to check the file extension and see that it's .lnk for the file system link.
