I cannot figure out the Shell command in a Word subroutine produces a "Run-time error '5': Invalid procedure call or argument"
The last two lines of my vbscript are:
Msgbox strCmd
RetVal = Shell(strCmd, 1)
The following is the text string that appears in the msgbox:
"e:\Apps\UtilitiesByMarc\inputBox wscript.popup_aaa.vbs" "e:\zmani\2018-5-13-17-34-21-0.7055475.txt" 8 "subPopupMsg_MultiLineMsg_Test" "0"
If I open a DOS window and paste that text string into it, the command line works perfectly.
So why does the last line of my script produce a "Run-time error '5': Invalid procedure call or argument"?
