Good Evening

I am using a shell instruction from a macro in Excel in order to run a fort ran 77 program ex; Quality.exe
You will find included a copy of this macro:

Dim MyAppID, Return Value

MyAppID = Shell("I:Micro soft Visual StudioCommonMSDEV98BINDFDEV.EXE I:QualiteEauprojetsQual2EQual2e.dsw ", 4)

This shell command start the proper project and that I have to do to execute the program is to press the Ctrl-F5 key
But in order to automate this operation, I would like to know which command line can I use to simulate that I am pressing
this Ctrl-F5 key or in other words What can I do to start the program.
Please give me an example to help me.
Thanks in advance

Are you trying to debug the program when run this way? If not, why not just shell the program directly?
