Hi Guys :)
Is it possible at all for VB and MS-DOS to communicate with each other?
I have a DOS executable which does a certain task, and the syntax is:
da <filename.bin> <filename.iso>
I'm trying to create an interface in VB so that the user does not have to go to MS-DOS to type in all the filenames, etc. I was able to get it to work at this point... however, after this command, the program will still prompt the user to enter in a value (0,1, or 2). How will I code my VB such that I could enter in a default value in my VB program , then the MS-DOS program would know (for example, that I chose 0/1/2)?
Hope this e-mail is clear... If anything is unclear please write back. Thanks!

Do you mean Shell a Dos Program and also performing the commands?
Code:
Shell "Dosprogram.exe /0 C:\file.exe C:\file.iso"
If you want to make your program look like a DOS Window, than try searching http://www.planet-source-code.com. It can be done.
