Hey Guys,
I am developing an FTP application that needs to
start another program. What is the command for me to start a program
within a windows forms application? For example, if I wanted to start
excel from within my application, how do I go about doing that???
thanks, in advance ,guys!

Use the System.Diagnostics.Process.Start to start a process.
