Default How Do I Run An Executable from Excel?

I want to attach code to a button to run an .exe on the LAN, the .exe
must be run from a different directory than where it is located. Is
there a way to input two paths into a shell command?

I had a shell command before that was very simple, for some reason it
doesn't work when migrating to XP from 2000.
