Default Using a "SHELL" Command

I'm getting an error message that implies that I can't call a procedure on
my system:
"This error can also occur if an attempt is made to call a procedure that
isn't valid on the current platform."
I'm running VBA 2003.

And the procedure I'm trying to run is to invoke a batch file ith the line

TS = Shell(FileName & ".bat", vbMinimizedNoFocus)

Any idea why this isn't working???

Mac in Berkeley, CA
