1. RE: Creating a Menu using tab

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?

2. RE: Creating a Menu using tab

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.
