The Differences in the Shell Command in Excel 2003 and 2007

P

In Excel 2003 to run a Shell for an executable file (.exe) it took the form:

Filename = "C:\Path\File.exe"
RetVal = Shell(Filename, 1)

How do you run a Shell for an executable file in Excel 2007?

Shell is a VB function and hasn't changed in Excel 2007.
