   OK, but I never specify any title for the windows and never had any problem   
   but maybe there could be a situation?   
      
   Wait - now I see, if I DO add "" as per your warning 3 - then I MUST add the   
   title as well.

   That I don't get? I think that it will _always_ return single backslashes   
   and that is also what I need when I run the start command. Or?

   Good point. As all my Paradox stuff is using good old DOS-standard for all   
   paths involved I never considered it.   
      
   This should work then even with paths with spaces.   
      
   Execute("cmd /c start \"\" \""+GetAliasPath(":WORK:")+"\\mybat.bat\"" , No,   
   ExeShowNormal)
