Catching output from external application ASP.NET

[gashoneil]

Hi,

I'm writing a program in ASP.NET and C# and I need to capture some
output from an external program. I have an .exe that I run, and this
generates a string that I want to bring back into my web application.
Any ideas?

You can redirect standard in and standard out using the process class.

includes an example

Excellent, that tutorial explained it thoroughly and I just got it
working. I never set property UseShellExecute to false to allow me to
redirect the StandardOutpu. Now this is done I am home free!! Thanks
