[Ancient Dragon]

system("\"D:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe\" 192.168.23.5");

[Aamit]

//192.168.23.5 /c/abc.exe

This is ip address of machine which is in Lan..
Not webside address....

Will this work?

system ("explorer http\\\\192.168.23.5");

[Prabakar]

Oh, I didnt see your reply, try
system( "\"//192.168.23.5/c/abc.exe\"");

[Aamit]

No....
I want to access //192.168.23.5/c/abc.exe
on client machine through server this client machine in Lan

One of the computers on my lan is named Victor. This works

system("dir \\\\Victor\\SharedDocs");

So I suppose you could do this

system("\\\\192.168.23.5\\c\\abc.exe");

[Prabakar]

Yes yes he's right. It should work.

[Aamit]

This gives error c:/abc.exe is Not recognized

[Ancient Dragon]

does abc.exe exist in that directory? And do you have execute permission there?

[Prabakar]

>> C:/abc.exe is Not recognized

I guess you should use backward slash '\'

[Aamit]

Yes abc.exe in this path 192.168.23.5\\c\\abc.exe ..I share c: of that machine .....

Never use system() in Win32. It's horrible and not professional.
Use Net apis or Shell apis to emulate IE.
