Need procedure to run/call 'someprog.exe' .

I'm trying to find a windows API call to execute another windows
program from my DELPHI program. I want to replace all mi icons with
drop down lists, sorta like Windows 3.1 did it.

CreateProcess, ShellExecute, ShellExecuteEx

There are hundreds of examples for using those functions, but read the
documentation before you look at the examples.

Where did Windows 3.1 use drop-down lists where we use icons today?

ShellExecute:

CreateProcess:
-scroll down the page, this allows you to wait for the called
application to finish
