Sorry,

Im using devCPP IDE.

I have solved the problem with CreateProcess ()

void OpenNotepad (char * file)
{
    char cmd[8192];
    BOOL success = 0;
    STARTUPINFO si;
    ZeroMemory(&si, sizeof(si));
    si.cb=sizeof(si);
    si.lpReserved=NULL;
    si.lpDesktop="Default";
    si.lpTitle=NULL,
    si.dwFlags=STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW;
    si.wShowWindow = SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED;
    si.cbReserved2=0;
    si.lpReserved2=NULL;

    PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;
    ZeroMemory( &pi, sizeof(pi) );

    if (file == NULL)
    {
       success = CreateProcess(NOTEPAD,
			       NULL,
			       NULL, NULL, FALSE,
			       DETACHED_PROCESS,
			       /* CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE is the same :( */
			       NULL, NULL, &si, &pi);
    }
    else
    {
       snprintf (cmd, sizeof (cmd), "%s %s", NOTEPAD, file);

       success = CreateProcess(NULL,
			       cmd,
			       //"C:\\WINDOWS\\NOTEPAD.EXE c:\\la.txt",
			       //"c:\\la.txt",
			       NULL, NULL, FALSE,
			       DETACHED_PROCESS,
			       /* CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE is the same :( */
			       NULL, NULL, &si, &pi);
    }
}

Tkz!!!
