O.P. Shell application, minimized
Hello everybody!
This might be a stupid question...:

I execute an external EXE File with this command:
code:
var objShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
    objShell.ShellExecute(MsgPlus.ScriptFilesPath + '\\app.exe', "", "", "open", 3);


What do I have to do, that this application doesn't start maximized?

Thank you very much!

MSDN gives you this information

You just need to find the value for SW_SHOWMINIMIZED (which just happens to be 2)

EDIT:
  SW_HIDE = 0
  SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1
  SW_NORMAL = 1
  SW_SHOWMINIMIZED = 2
  SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED = 3
  SW_MAXIMIZE = 3
  SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE = 4
  SW_SHOW = 5
  SW_MINIMIZE = 6
  SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE = 7
  SW_SHOWNA = 8
  SW_RESTORE = 9
  SW_SHOWDEFAULT = 10
  SW_FORCEMINIMIZE = 11
  SW_MAX = 11
