Here is one example for a PM application. You must fill in the
correct parameters for pszExecutable, pszTitle, ... yourself.

    HAPP         hApp;
    PROGDETAILS  prgDetails;

    prgDetails.Length          = sizeof (prgDetails);
    prgDetails.progt.progc     = PROG_PM;
    prgDetails.progt.fbVisible = SHE_VISIBLE;
    prgDetails.pszTitle        = "Title of other application";
    prgDetails.pszExecutable   = "OTHERAPP.EXE";
    prgDetails.pszParameters   = "";
    prgDetails.pszStartupDir   = "";
    prgDetails.pszIcon         = "OTHERAPP.ICO";
    prgDetails.pszEnvironment  = "WORKPLACE\0\0";
    prgDetails.swpInitial.fl   = SWP_ACTIVATE;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.cy   = 0;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.cx   = 0;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.y    = 0;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.x    = 0;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.hwndInsertBehind = HWND_TOP;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.hwnd             = hFrame;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.ulReserved1      = 0;
    prgDetails.swpInitial.ulReserved2      = 0;

    hApp = WinStartApp ( hWindow,
                         &prgDetails,
                         NULL,
                         NULL,
                         SAF_STARTCHILDAPP );

Tschuess, Steffen
