Multiple arguements

[jagoh87]

Im trying to give my application the option to add routes, using the command line util route add.

But to add a route i obviously need to use "route add -p 123.456.789.000 mask 255.225.255.0 987.654.321.000" (Numbers just examples)

I have so far.

Private Sub btnClear_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnClear.Click
        txtIp.Text = ""
        txtMask.Text = ""
        txtGate.Text = ""
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click
        Dim a As New Process
        a.StartInfo.FileName = "route.exe"
        a.StartInfo.Arguments = "add"
        a.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
        a.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
        a.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
        a.Start()
    End Sub

thanks for any help.

The entire command line except the file name goes in the Arguments property.

a.StartInfo.Arguments = "add -p 123.456.789.000 255.225.255.0 987.654.321.000"

Ok thanks but what about if the addresses come from text boxes?

It's just a string that you're assigning to the Arguments property so you can easily construct it by concatenating the contents of TextBoxes or whatever.
