Hi All,
I have a compiled Fortran executable that I must execute from a VB.Net
windows application. What is the best way to go about this? In a similar
application, developed with VB6, I used the ShellExecute Win API function.
Is there a cleaner way in .NET?

Best Regards,
Chad

You're looking for System.Diagnostics.Process.
