Take a look at 'Microsoft.Interaction.Shell' and
'System.Diagnostics.Process.Start'.

Thanks!
It works ok, but there is a little problem...
I'm trying to execute "gpresult.exe > 1.txt".
I don't know how to run it and i'm getting error at ">".
It cannot put stream into a file.

My code looks something like that:

Dim aplik as integer
aplik = Shell("""gpresult.exe"" >1.txt", , True)
