API CreateProcess and further child fails

Bit of a long shot here.. but I'am using the API CreateProcess from VB to launch a command line that runs the Oracle runtime module F45Run32.EXE on an NT system (I then use WaitForSingleObject to wait till its complete so I can clean up the environment)

Now if I execute the same command line directly then all is well. But when I use CreateProcess to do it, it all starts OK.. untill the forms module tries to create a further child process ... at this point it just hangs up.. and I have to use the Task Manager to kill it off

It just seems that the process created by CreateProcess cannot create a child!! anyone any ideas at all ?
