Shell Command Fails (sometimes)

I have been using the shell command often this way:

Shell Environ("comspec") & " /c " & ProgramFile & " <" & InFile & " " &
OutFile, vbNormalFocus

Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not (within the same directory, the
path is OK.) It does not seem to be reading the input file of the executable.

any ideas?

Thanks
Dan
