KeenR1214 Posted November 29, 2003 Posted November 29, 2003 I have been looking for the simple code to launch an external file (.exe, .ink, .whatever) and then quit the VB Program... I have no idea how to go about doing this but have been adamantly searching. Obviously I am a bit of a beginner if I have no idea how to do something I know is probably so simple. I want this to be able to be done on a button click event. Please include as much code as possible so I can figure out what is right. The sequence of events that I want to happen: Button Click C:/file.exe launched & (simultaneously) the VB Prog. ends C:/file.exe continues to run Quote
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted November 29, 2003 Administrators Posted November 29, 2003 (edited) Have a look at System.Diagnostics.Process that will allow you to run external programs. Also there is no need to post the same question in multiple places - either someone will reply or they won't. Posting the same thing in several places isn't going to get a better reply.
