launch other application from my application [RESOLVED]

[shadowfyre]

Someone has written a utility that converts a file from fixed length to variable length and vice versa(If you don't know what that means, no big deal, it's pretty much irrelavent to my question). When calling it from the command line, it takes two parameters, the source file and the destination file. E.g.

fileconvert test.fix test.var

In this case, test.fix exists and test.var is created by fileconvert.

How do I do this in my code? I've tried

Process.Start("fileconvert " & TextBox1.Text & " test.var")

but it bombs out on me with an exception, "The system cannot find the file specified."

Figured it out. I needed to set the working directory using Process.StartInfo.

you could also pass the full path as the parameter for Start() instead of just specifiying the EXE's name
