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?

I'm beating my head against the wall on this problem.  Everything else

I am adding a "plug-in" mechanism to an existing C# application.  The
plug-ins are to be customer-written COM objects, dynamically loaded by my C#
host code.  I am able to load and talk to a few different sample plugins
