James, The CallProgram() API was not performing any path or extension resolution at all, so I'm a bit puzzled with your statement that this worked on the first invocation...it should not have worked at all. I've fixed this, but I'd like to verify with a sample program from you. If you'll open a bug and attach a program to that, I'll be able to verify my fix corrects your problem.
