Hi,

The sample code below:

using System.Diagnostics;

// Notepad
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo.FileName = "notepad";
process.StartInfo.Arguments = "myFile.txt";
process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
process.Start();
process.WaitForExit();

// Windows Explorer
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo.FileName = "explorer";
process.StartInfo.Arguments = "c:\temp";
process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
process.Start();
process.WaitForExit();

// IE
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo.FileName = "file:///e:/temp/myfile.txt";
process.StartInfo.Arguments = "";
process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
process.Start();
process.WaitForExit();

Hi,

Your question is not very clear, if what you want to do is start a new
process you can use System.Diagnostics.Process class, this allow you to
especify the command line you want.

hope this help,
