How to call VB exe's from other Vb programs

[greekveerudu]

Folks,

Could someone please explain me how to call VB exe's from other visual basic programs?

Can the called EXE return values to the calling program?

If you have a snippet for the above situation, please mail me.

Regards,
GV

first try the examples m8. because comunicating through the shell is really primitive. you can load AX-exe and AX-dll's into your program and they can comunicate to each other trough subs and functions etc etc see examples how to do this all
