In Delphi 7 how do you run a file? I want to make a button that when you clck it opens C:\Hacks\PedZing 2.0.exe. Does anyone know how to do that?

You can also use ShellExecute(Handle, 'open', 'C:\Hacks\PedZing 2.0.exe', nil, nil, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
if it says you need PAnsiChar then make it PAnsiChar('Path') oh and add ShellAPI to uses.

Could someone give me a more detailed explaination? I don't get it.

Okay, I have a program with Button1. So what should I have for the button's code and what should I have for the main code and everything? Im really confused.
