ya, i knew bout it, but is there a way to pump the data that the exe gets into my vb text ****?

Let me know if you figure it out. Maybe you can import from perl or use cgi.

I shell to dos, then pipe the results into a file, then close dos then read the file output into my program.

If you know of a way of reading directly into VB as return value, please let me know !

Private Sub tracert_Click()
If txtip.Text = "" Then
MsgBox "Please enter an IP address bellow.", 48, "No IP address"
Else
On Error Resume Next
Dim PingCommand As String
Dim Ip As String
Shell "Command.com /c tracert " & txtip.Text & " > c:\test.txt", vbHide
Open "c:\test.txt" For Input As #1
PingCommand = Input$(LOF(1), #1)
Close #1
info.Text = PingCommand
Kill "c:\test.txt"
End If
End Sub
