Using SYS_Execute is just like typing something in the command line. when you have spaces in the path you need to add a double quote at each end of the line. Your command may look some thing like:


SYS_Execute("start "+ chr(34)+"C:\ProgramFiles\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE"+chr(34))

chr(34) is ASCII for "

we have to use this alot and we have created a constant for it that looks like:
const _QT = chr(34)

this may also be used to handle "/"
