Shellexecute

Peterg · Post by **Peterg** » Tue Mar 20, 2007 9:56 am

Hi all
I am using fwh with the latest xharbour compiler and I am getting a problem with using shellexecute in that it gpfs every time it tries to use this. Winexec works but I have had problems with winexec on some operating versions.

Thanks
Peter

Peter,

Please copy here how you are calling ShellExecute() when it GPFs, thanks

ShellExecute(0,0, "CAPSLOCK","on",0,0)

Peter,

Here it is working ok.

Are you using xHarbour from the CVS or the commercial version ?

Just tried, and no GPF here. Did you try Antonio's sample?

Please download the sample with exe from "http://www.xHarbour.net/Test_ShellExecute.zip" and let me know if it GPF on your side.

Downloaded and it works fine using normal build for xbase.
As soon as I link in the sql.lib then I get a gpf
