Shell &quot;hl.exe -game cstrike +connect 202.123.12.123:7012&quot;<br />
<br />

use the Shell command, like so:
Shell "hl.exe -game cstrike +connect 202.123.12.123:7012"

hope this helps

...or if that doesn't work, use a batch file with the following contents:<br />
<br />
@Echo off<br />
hl.exe -game cstrike +connect 202.123.12.123:7012<br />
<br />
<br />
save it in notepad at &quot;LaunchCS.bat&quot; or something, as long as it ends in &quot;.bat&quot;, then use shell to excecute this, with<br />
Shell &quot;LaunchCS.bat&quot;<br />
<br />
the problem might be that you are running the exe but the current path is not correct. so, either use<br />
Chdir &quot;c:\counterstrike&quot; &nbsp;'or wherever hl.exe is<br />
<br />
or to use the batch file, after creating it, right click on it, select properties, goto the 'Program' tab and change 'working' to the directory where hl.exe is in.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
