   I think you should get rid of the comma after the Exe but not sure.   
      
   Anyway, much better to use ShellExecuteA - search the forums for the code.   
   It's genereic for opening all kinds of files with a registered extension.   
      
   To hardcode the path to the exe in this way could fail for many reasons.
