    call ms-dos app

    I am trying to call a ms-dos app from my vb.net program, using the same call as in vb6. This gives me an empty inactivated command line window. How shall I do?

    I dont know how to do this, but if you post some code people would be able to help you
    put your code in [vbcode] and [/vbcode] tags so it would be easy to read...

    I try to start the ms-dos app with the following code:

    Call Shell(AppDir & "myDOSApp.exe", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

    which, as I said before, gives me an empty inactivated command line window.
