Process.start problem

I would like to call a .NET executable file in a windows serviceat certain intervals of time. The following is the codesnippet, I put in. I am not receiving any error in my errorhandling routine (as it writes as a log entry). But my problemis, the respective application doesn't popup on screen and getvisible. I desperately need the application to be visible whenit does some work (just to know basically the status andprogress of the process it is doing). I copied calc.exe intothe root to test it. But I didn't test with anything else. Cananybody help me please.

'first method
'Dim proc As Process = Process.Start("c:\calc.exe")

'second method
'Dim startInfo As New ProcessStartInfo("c:\calc.exe")
'startInfo.CreateNoWindow = False
'startInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Normal
'Process.Start(startInfo)

'third method
'Shell("c:\calc.exe"), AppWinStyle.NormalFocus, False)
