i cannot return bytes from function, (this code is a function, which should read a file into BYTE array and return this array among with nr of bytes read).

you can't use ShellExecute like that

ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "http://www.microsoft.com", NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);

ShellExecute(NULL, "open", "http://www.microsoft.com", "-new", NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
