Guidance Needed Please

I have a listbox with all my databases listed (e.g. Software) that is set up according to one of your previous videos to open all the databases from the one shared database.

After watching this video, I tried to modify the code to include the /high parameter, but I can't get it to work.  I'm hoping someone can help.  Here's my original code:

    Dim S As String
    S = CurrentProject.Path & "\" & DatabaseListbox & ".accdb"
    FollowHyperlink S

What happens when you run the code? You could try using Shell (or the ShellEx function in the Code Vault) instead of FollowHyperlink. `Dim S As String If Not IsNull(DatabaseListbox) Then S = CurrentProject.Path & "\" & DatabaseListbox & ".accdb" Shell "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\MSACCESS.EXE " & S, vbMaximizedFocus End If`

Are all the database located in the same folder as the current database?

Kevin, thanks for your response, but I think I have you confused. My code works, but what I wanted was to know how to add the /high priority to it like Rick demonstrated in the "Task Priority" Video. He showed how do Open them using a .bat file, but I was wanting to run it from within Access.
