Re: [Dev-C++] How do you find a file's path?

Hi again ,

 Something like this :


************************************
#include <process.h>


 char *my_env[] =
{
   "Environ To Pass",
   NULL //pass sytem environ
};

char *my_Prog ="iexplorer"; //program to launch
 char *args[4]; // arguments for my_Prog






 _spawnvpe( _P_NOWAIT , my_Prog, args, my_env );

**************************************
  
 Hope it works .
