Default SHELL command

Greetings !

Regarding -

Shell "dir C:\ /S C:\DirList1.$$$",1

...which works just FINE in a DOS window, but not in VB
[RunTime error 53: File not found]

Can SKS please suggest -

(a) why it doesn't work

(b) what it should be, in order to work; and/or

(c) a better way of achieving the same thing?
