Run Dos command from VB.Net

6 New Member
I am a complete newbie at programing, but i still want to try learning how to do it. Then i thought instead of writing large amounts of code, i could just use the included Dos commands. However, i am not even sure how to run those from VB.NET. Are there any examples or snippets out there for me to use?
