Wow. I am really confused by some of the syntax being given here, such as:
Run("\"" + "command here" + "\"")
I understand the use of double quotes within the outer quotes but this
doesn't seem consistent with other
languages that I've used.
Anyway, I have tried several permutations based on the answers already given
and none seem to work.
My command is given below. If someone could please help me understand by
putting this into the proper
format it would be greatly appreciated. It will probably sink in once I see
it done in full.

Run("C:\\Documents and Settings\\Jones\\Application Data\\Freedom
Scientific\\JAWS\\9.0\\Settings\\enu\\Delete_pdf.exe")
*
Thanks.
