All is well and fine while I am in Visual Studio and run in debug.
Redireted DOS output displays properly in he textbox.
I am starting the DOS porgram with a process using
.startinfo and friends.
Once I try to run the same executable from windows the
redirected output no longer displays in the textbox.
Hard to say without knowing anything about your code...
