Hi ,
   I am trying to Open an Executable from my VB application using
Shell.
    e.g. Shell ABC.exe,vbnormalfocus
   The application does open by the above code when tested on a
machine. But, When i tried this same code from other machine, it gave
me error saying,
 "Invalid procedure call or argument".

  The application which i am calling using shell resides in the
following path.
   "D:\Program Files\Pankaj\ABC.exe"

I am out of ideas...on this issue. Can anybody help me out?
Why the heck i am getting this error..when it works on some other
machine.

   Urgent Reply please.
