Hello everyone,
In a folder, I have a: "name.exe" file.
In the same folder, I have a folder: "launcher" in which there is a "launcher.bas".
I would like to launch: "name.exe" since "launcher.bas"
In: "Launcher.bas", I tried:
run "name.exe.."
run "name.exe..\"
run "name.exe\.."
Nothing works, how to do it?
Thank you for...

Read that again try run "/name,exe" you need to give the path to where name.exe is. so try \name.exe or /name.exe

The following works for me.

Run "..\name.exe"

A little more flesh on the bones.

Every directory has an implicit '.' directory that refers to itself, and an implicit '..' directory that refers to its parent.

so

./ is the current directory

../ is up one directory

../../ is up two directories

Yes, "filedialog "Open", "..\*.exe", fileName$" is good
"filedialog "Open", "*.exe..\", fileName$" is not good"
