1. unwanted DOS window

system("notepad " & LogFile, 2)
is the last line of a little Win32lib proggy of mine to show the logs
but it always opens a DOS window behind the Notepad for a few
seconds. Can this be avoided somehow?
Best regards,

If you are using win32lib ver. 0.55.1, you could use something like the
following:
object jk
sequence current
current=current_dir()
.. no DOS window here ! ...

This is great and works well. However, it appears to work at its own speed
and independently of the process which called it. Is there any way of having
my program wait until the shelled process is complete?
On a related issue, is there a way of getting hold of the window title of
every window on the machine, over and above whatever windows my program has
created? This question derives from wanting to watch for the disappearance
of the window created by my shell call.
I'm slowly getting the hand of Win32 programming after years of DOS. It's
great having the registered version!
