How to embed a batch file?

Hey,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to have a vb.net app that can load a batch file, and run it inside the vb.net app.

Something like, when you open the application, you will see a blank window with a big button that says "Start Batch File" and when you click it, the button will "go away" (hide) and the batch file will now be loading in the application.

If anyone knows how to do this, it would be a huge help. I'm mostly doing this because I'm doing something that involves keeping 3 batch files opened and running constantly, and I was hoping there was a way to keep them all in one window (hence the want to use a vb.net app as a container)

Thanks in advance for any help!
