Steve, what he tried to do is a substitution of CHR$(34) with the quote mark in the code. See below...
Shell "D:\" + " + "Program Files" + " + "\Notepad++\notepad++.exe tmp.three"
^ ^
When he runs what I posted, he will see how QB64 treats the quote symbol vs CHR$(34) differently during the concatenation process.
Acapulco is nice this time of the year. Hey wait, this is a paid Keyword of the Day vacation, right?
