| Hi! I'm programming with VB and I want to know how open an
txt file in notepad. I tried to use the shell command,
but this only open exe file, like notepad.exe. I don't
know how to pass parameters (the file name) to this
command. Please, help me.

| If you are using the shell command in vb6 it's as simple as shell
"notepad.exe pathtomyfile.txt".
In vb.net you can still use the shell command, or you can use the
create and use the process object which gives you more control
dim a as new process()
a.start("pathtomyfile.txt") // Note this will launch the application
associated with .txt files.
