   I sometimes run into similar problems. A bat file that "should" execute does   
   not.   
      
   I have found that calling it in the following manner works.   
      
   Here is an example:   
      
   Execute("cmd /c start "+GetAliasPath(":WORK:")+"\\mybat.bat",No,   
   ExeShowNormal)   
      
   That is to start a bat file in the working dir, you can ofcourse adjust this   
   to:   
      
   Execute("cmd /c start "C:\\Folder\\mybat.bat",No, ExeShowNormal)   
      
   If you want to hardcode to run a bat-file located on the computer or:   
      
   Execute("cmd /c start "\\\\ComputerName\\Folder\\mybat.bat",No,   
   ExeShowNormal)   
      
   If you want to run a bat file that is located on another computer.   
      
      
   Best regards
