"ShellExecute" API call has a lpParameters parameter

BTW, there is also a lpOperation parameter that can be things like:

open (opens file)
print (prints file, and, in general, closes the application)
explore (opens in explorer)

and lastly...

nShowCmd parameter allows you to display the launched app as normal, maximized, minimized, or hidden.

hth,

Brian
