Tiago,

You can start it up. Take a look at the Start method on the Process
class.

As for controlling it once you do start it up, that's different. That's
specific to Skype, and whether they provide an API for doing it.

Hope this helps.

You mean just starting an external application? If so: Process.Start ("path
to exe file");
