OpenProcess throws an error on UNC path, but not on mapped network drive

Hello again...

I have some VBA code that is doing a shell-and-wait on an executable being launched by wscript. I originally setup the code using a mapped network drive letter, but after switching it to the UNC version, error traps kick in while trying to run the shell command. I've been debugging and get 100% correct results when using mapped network drives to a file share location, but get disperate results otherwise. Is this process access rights related? This isnt my area at all.

I need to use PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION to watch the exit code. I tried PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION as well, but the results were the same. If anything sticks out, please let me know. I will continue to dig on my end.

Thanks forumers...

This ended up being related to strings and literals. I'd omitted chr(34) in a few places, but once i fixed that, smooth sailing...until the next bug
