I'm trying to call a program (and/or batch file) from a command line from
within a standalone VB.NET application - something I would have done using
the "System()" function if I was working in C.
The only way I've found so far is
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("blah.exe in out")
Yes.
(I'll be creating 'in' and processing 'out' from within my app).
Is this the best way to do it? Is there a way to suppress the DOS box
that briefly flashes up?
You may want to check out the 'ProcessStartInfo' class and its 'WindowStyle'
and 'CreateNoWindow' properties. Maybe this solves your problem.
