System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(sBatchFile)

Not sure why it's in the "Diagnostics" namespace though - maybe one of

Hi

To make TheNedMan's answer more complete when you have parameters.
\\\
Public Class Main
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim p As New Process
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = True
p.StartInfo.Arguments = "c:\windows\win.ini"
p.StartInfo.FileName = "notepad.exe"
p.Start()
End Sub
End Class
///
I hope this helps?
