Comment (by NeilMitchell):

 Using ShellExecute would probably be the wrong thing to do in this
 instance. ShellExecute is the right thing to "execute" (or Open) a file in
 the same way as the "Shell" (e.g. Windows Explorer) would do. In other
 words, its a generic "open this file" mechanism, not something to run
 command line tools, which is what you really want here.
