incorrect caption specifier. read the help file for a complete overview of
ppro captions. specifically in your case, your caption says "the "program
file (that's the `=' in the caption) whose name is xplorer*.exe - but
wildcards aren't supported for =. the correct specifier should be
=xplorer2 that's all. BTW [EMAIL PROTECTED] will generate and substitute
=xplorer2
for caption if you pass the null string "".

OK, so you do want to match the window title with a wildcard, then just
remove the initial `=' character. caption should be xplorer*
