To All
I have two different programs that I cut and past a simple shellexecute statement into :
Curl := "http://www.yahoo.com"
msginfo( Curl )
SHELLEXECUTE(nil,"open", cURL,0,0,1)
One program this works and the other different program it does not .. Driving me absolutely nuts .. I have created a 3 line test program with the above lines and it works .. However, the Shellexecure that will not respond nor will it fail in a try, catch, end try statement... just does not work. Granted, this code is buried at least 3 levels deep from and MDI main window..
1) Main MDIchild browse listbox .. click on a line for details
2) detail form is a modal dialog
3) click on a button for relational records to a modal listbox
4) click on a line for detail
5) click on a detail button to launch shellexec .. where it fails
Any ideas why this code will not work in all instances ??
