Running a .JAR file from within VBA

G

Guest

I'm trying to write some code to run a .jar file when a button is clicked on
a form but I'm having some problems. I tried using the Shell() command but
no luck. Here's what I tried:

Private Sub Command0_Click()
Shell ("java -jar C:\jarfilename.jar")
End Sub

When I click on the button on the form, nothing opens. Can the Shell()
command be used in this case or is there something else I can use?

Thanks.
