Arguments against using SHELL for opening Access from VB6

Are there any arguments against using SHELL command for opening Access
from VB6 ?

I will define full path of access, system.mdw path, user name and
password and database path to be opened.

I was not able to find another way for defining all these parameters
together.

Thanks a lot in advance.
