I have yet one question.

The command "net send" return a string value on next line, can i catch this
line and use it in my Win32 application?

If is it possible, how can i catch it?

Thanks

No, that's output. That's not the same. Executables do have return values,
but that's something completely different.

Use the Process.StandardOutput property to read the process's output. You'll
find sample code in the documentation entry of that property.

e.g.

public class ProcessDataRetriever
{
public static string[] GetData(string cmd, string args)
{
using(Process p = new Process())
{
ProcessStartInfo psi = new ProcessStartInfo(cmd, args);
psi.UseShellExecute = false;
psi.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
psi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
psi.CreateNoWindow = true;
p.StartInfo = psi;
p.Start();
ArrayList a = new ArrayList(); string s;
while((s = p.StandardOutput.ReadLine()) != null) a.Add(s);
p.Close();
return (string[])a.ToArray(typeof(string));
}
}
}
