As you know, the spaces in the path are causing the problem. It _might_ 
work if you enclose the file in quotes.

open QUOTE &"C:\Programme\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\DAO350.DLL" 
&QUOTE with . . .

Best bet is to use the Buddy API Xtra to get the DOS short filename 
equivalent of that file.

theFile = baShortFileName("C:\Programme\Common Files\Microsoft 
Shared\DAO\DAO350.DLL")
open theFile with ...

Or use Buddy API's baRunProgram()
