Here is one way.

Dim sr As New StreamWriter("C:\Test.bat")
sr.WriteLine("@echo ""Hello World""")
sr.WriteLine("pause")
sr.Close()
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:\Test.bat")

A batch file is just a text file that contains commandline instructions. You can create a text file easily enough in VB.NET. If you want to execute a batch file, either pre-existing or one you've just created yourself, then you do so the same way as you execute any other file:

Process.Start("file path here")

If you want to pass commandline arguments to that batch file, again, you do so the same way as you would for any other file being executed:

Process.Start("file path here", "commandline arguments here")
