Re: ShellExecuteA

I'll repeat myself one more time...

There are ways around the 123 character limit.

I'll go a step further and point you to a message in the archive with
an example...

I understand all you said.  ShellExecuteA is what I was using in a
Visualage for RPG program I had (I know, old and ancient).  I ran across
examples for STRPCCMD and RUNRMTCMD in the archives, but the paths to
the PC files will be too long for the 123 character limit on the
STRPCCMD command.  Users will be drilling down several folders with
large folder and file names (hundreds of characters).  There's a way to
do is, I just need to find it!
