[HELP] Opening a .exe

Let's say I want Button3 to open a .exe,Sounds simple enough but would someone tell me.

Process.Start("C:Wherever the .exe is")
or
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(" ^^ ")

make a new from|||||| 2x click your button and type

Code:

process.start(your proces here.exe)

and then

Code:

form2.close

Why do I need a 2nd form?

You don't need a second form.

Code:

Process.Start("File plus location")

THIS IS A BETTER ONE:
process.start(application.startuppath & "exename.exe")
the exe will start even if the folder is moved, but the exe must be in the same folder

...that's a bigger problem, your assuming the Op wants to start a process that can be controlled, in most situations the developer wants to start IE, notepad, or some other application that can't be in the application folder.

owned my nextgen. lol
