Shell does not run a GUI Application

(1/1)

alecs:
Hi

I made a VB form with a simple button that calls a compiled GUI app through the Shell command

--- Code: ---Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim procID As Integer
        procID = Shell("C:\pepsiZone\Sistema\pepsiZoneOF.exe", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus, Wait:=True)
   End Sub

--- End code ---

however it keeps crashing...

If i complie the project with as a console application it works fine

any suggestions?
