Running an executable program from within my visual c program

2
Hi

I am trying to start up a labview file from within my C program.

Whats the easiest way to start an external program up ?

I looked at _execl but could not make any sense of the arguments and parameters and am not sure if this is the best way to proceed.

Regards

Ollie
