I cant find a command anywhere to execute a file! The command in BlitzPlus (and most likely B3D) was ExecFile, but I cant find anything similar to it in BlitzMax. Does it exist or do I have to make my own? Thank you :D

CreateProcess is probably your best bet for maximum control.

I may just be stupid, or have an out of date version although I doubt it because ive installed 1.14 and just did a sync, but I cant find the CreateProcess command =/ EDIT: Nvm i found it, the bloody thing doesnt get highlighted

I've posted a 'Launching a Program' in the BlitzMax tutorials which might help you: [a /posts.php?topic=53709] Mmm .. there is a way to post a link for both blitzbasic.com and blitzmax.com sites but I can't remember how. Here is the blitzmax one: http://www.blitzmax.com/Community/posts.php?topic=53709
