Shell not displaying (1 Viewer)

[kirkm]

After first testing and seemingly okay this is now failing to show the Thunderbird Window until clicked in the taskbar,

thund = "D:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe " & _
                    "-compose " & """" & _
                    "to='" & email & "'," & _
                    "cc='" & cc & "'," & _
                    "attachment='" & Attached & "'," & _
                    "subject='" & subj & "'," & _
                    "body='" & body & "'" & """"
        
            Call Shell(thund, vbNormalFocus)
            SendKeys "^+{ENTER}", True

Are Shell, vbNormalFocus and Sendkeys correct ?

 

[Ranman256]

Running shell event does not keep a cmd window open.
It just executes the command.

The Access window remains, the thunderbird window doesn't appear (whch is what's wanted). Is this what Sendkeys is intended to do?
