Default How do I run an external program?

I have a program, that I would like to run from excel. It is AudioMagic

Here is the syntax of the program:
Command line option
syntax: audiomagic.exe /record [hh:mm:ss] [filename.mp3]

/record parameter enables AudioMagic to start automatically recording
immediately after the execution of the command. AudioMagic will stop
recording after specified duration hh:mm:ss (hh: hour, mm: minute, ss:
second). If the duration is not specified, AudioMagic will not stop
automatically, since it does not know when to stop. You need to stop it
manually by clicking stop button.

All the time fields (hh:mm:ss) are required. If the field is zero, then
specify it as 00 . For example, if you want to record only 10 minutes, then
the command line looks like this: audiomagic.exe /record 00:10:00 .

I would like to build the filename from cell e5. So FileName = e3 & ".mp3"
is what I would want to do.





TIA
