Comment:

I have a DOS Batch file that starts a fortran program with an instruction file. This batch file works fine and I can run it from the Windows Start Menu. But I can't get the batch file to run from the Shell in my Exel (2000) VBA. I know my shell operations work fine because I can run a DOS executble - I just can make it run the batch file. Any ideas (I am looping to wait for the program to run before continuing with my VBA)
