   ' The 2 sets of speech marks after the application name are for variables - they must both be filled in, even if both sets contain the same variable...pretty sure thats what I have found anyway...


  ' There is a simpler Shell command, but I like this one more because you can use variables to get the application you want to run to also do something... I think "notepad.exe", "test.txt", "test.txt" should open notepad and open or create a file called test.txt...
