Look here: http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ shellcc/platform/shell/reference/functions/shellexecuteex.asp Snippet: "If the function succeeds, it sets the hInstApp member of the SHELLEXECUTEINFO structure to a value greater than 32. If the function fails, hInstApp is set to the SE_ERR_XXX error value that best indicates the cause of the failure. Although hInstApp is declared as an HINSTANCE for compatibility with 16-bit Microsoft Windows applications, it is not a true HINSTANCE. It can only be cast to an int and compared to either 32 or the SE_ERR_XXX error codes." Andrew This email and any attached files are confidential and copyright protected.
