Hi,

this should work, but there could be few problems.

First one that comes to mind is the space in the path. E.g. my server name
could be "Primus". The full path to the file would e.g. be
"\\primus\c$\WINNT\system32\my exe file.exe" Since file name is "my exe
file.exe" you have to put whole patch into brackets (" "). If you don't
runas (and other programs), will try to run only this
\\primus\c$\WINNT\system32\my and stop (because of the space)...

Second thing that you could do (that I would do) is map the drive first and
then run e.g. "w:\my exe file.exe" ...

Last thing that comes to my mind is, make sure, you haven't misspelled the
patch and that the program that you are trying to reach is really on the
path that you entered...

I hope this helps,

Mike
