If I run a program from another program using shellExecute, then run another program from that, etc., etc, won't I run out of memory sooner or later? Is there a way to run a program from another program that doesn't use shell and that will not take you back to the first program when you close the second program. Or is that necesary?

Running a program using shellExecute is not much different than double-clicking an icon to run a program... You can launch one program from another and close the first, leaving the second program running in it's own memory space. -- Brian Ron Austin wrote: > If I run a program from another program using shellExecute, then run > another program from that, etc., etc, won't I run out of memory sooner > or later?
