I was experimenting with fexecl(), using Manx3.4a on my 2000, and
could not get it to work. A typical example would be:
fexecl("RUN","EXECUTE","BAT_FILE",0);
My batch file was on the current drive. The routine returned error 193
when the error was retrieved with the wait() function. I looked in all my
books and could not find a description of the error. Would somebody please
send me e-mail (as oppossed to posting, as I'll be away from school for a month)
telling me just what is going wrong? By the way, I also tried a really simple
example, like fexecl("hello",0) and got the same result.
Many Thanks,
