Possibly the name of your control doesn't have this name.
"PicMaple"

I was going to says the same ^^
Also, could be that you MapleStory is not on that location. In case it's, then the button name. As for the code, is ok for what you're looking for.

Private Sub (the right control name)_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Shell (you path), vbNormalFocus
End Sub
get your path using recommended methods.

I suggest you use CreateProcess instead of Shell.

That will do nothing..
So, the error will stay and then.. nothing.

I means, yea, On Error Goto / Resume is a nice command to make a program "UnCrash-Able" but, in this case.. if the button name is wrong or if the location is not right, then the button will just do nothing.

His code is fine, you just have to edit it accordingly for your program like it says.
For example, Command1 will be used to open Notepad. (Hard coded, I do not suggest you do it like this as not everyone uses C:\ as their main system drive.)
| Code: | Private Sub Command1_Click()
Shell "C:\Windows\Notepad.exe", vbNormalFocus
End Sub |
I also suggest you don't use shell since you have little to no control over the application you launch if you wish to be able to control it later on with ease. Instead, you should use CreateProcess.

Just do it in Delphi, I did. THIS IS FOR DELPHI: First in the main form code make sure you include Then you can execute stuff like this: | Code: | | ShellExecute(Handle, 'open',C:\Nexon\MapleStory\MapleStory.exe', nil, nil, SW_SHOWNORMAL) ; |
when the button is clicked.[/code]
