Visual Basic application?

I am trying to build a application that will run files from my usb drive. I code it with the

shell ("g:\folder\**.exe")

But when I run the test it says file not found? Is this not the correct code?

    When using the shell command I don't believe that you can use wildcards in the pathname.

    Try a simple test where you use a pathname to a single specific file.

    If a single file call works then you can write a Batch file listing the multiple files you wish to execute and make a single call to than BAT file stored on the USB.
