Lol.. Pure_Morning.. YES that is the DOS Prompt. I don't understand why he said no, but it is. You want to replace "some.exe" with the path to "command.com" and then add your command line switches, seperated by chr(9). Chr(9) is actually a TAB, but it acts as a space when processed. I suggest you add the command line switch "/c" before all other switches. That will close the DOS prompt box that pops up after it runs the commands you tell it. Much better than having the user do it him/herself. Oh and one more thing - download this example of a Windows "Run" box I made.. which uses the DOS Command Line to open any file that has a program associated with it on the user's computer (and is automatically opened by the program it is associated with). Let me know if you have any problems
