Need a little help with system fuction c++

Hi,
Im kindof new to c++... need a little help with system() function..
I use system to execute a dos program... but i want the rest of the program to continue imediately
after executing it. and not wait for the program which was executed...
any help would be appreciated...

This is beyond the scope of C++. Have a look at some of the functions
at the end of http://www.comeaucomputing.com/techtalk/#system
as but some possibilities.

'system' behaviour is not specified by the Standard. Ask in a newsgroup
for your compiler. You are most likely in need of a platform-specific
way of starting a process.
