Using files and directories with spaces in the name, with "SHELL" is a PITA.

Try changing from "Program Files" to "PROGRA~1" inside that path.

I have now tried everything under Basic, everything I could think of, but it doesn't work. - Under C, on the other hand, I got it to work.

This is how it works with the call of two programs under C. Maybe someone knows how to transfer this to Basic?

Code: (Select All)

//Aufruf externe Programme - 13. Dez. 2022
//Wie funktioniert dies in QuickBasic?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <process.h>

int main(void)
{
    printf("\nAufruf eines externen Programms.\n\n");
    
    //Doppelte Schrägstriche! "Start" nur hier, sonst wird
    //QB64 erst nach Schließung von Notepad gestartet.
    system("start D:\\Programme\\notepad++.exe D:\\Lab\\QuickBasic64\\Forum\\Aufruf-IT-Adressen\\tmp.three");
    
    printf("\n\nStart von QB64\n");
    system("D:\\Programme\\QB64Phoenix3\\QB64pe.exe");
    
    return(0);
}

PS: Oh yes, with "program files" and so on it did not work either under Basic or under C. I copied the Notepad++.exe file to Programme as a test.
