exucte Command Prompt in fourm

[rootvg]

Guy's

I want to execute come command like ipconfig from my form as Command Prompt

Can any one help me in this ..

From Picture tool or Text tool .. Pls advice ..

[justgreat]

Dim sMyCommand as String
sMyCommand  = "ipconfig"
Shell "cmd /c " & sMyCommand , vbHide

[justgreat]

This code is supposed to launch the command prompt with a hidden way (cuz there is the attribute vbhidden), and it will launch the ipconfig (or any other command dos you type in the sMyCommand)
In case you need to see the dos command prompt than don't use the vbhide

its not working with me .. in which mode I have to run it ?

can you please show me ..

[justgreat]

I am sure that it's working, but it's hidden so you don't see it !!!! You said you want to be able to launch the command that you can excecute from VB and i told you how !! now it depends on your command, the code I gave you works fine !!!

Try from your vb things like the following and you will see that it's working !!

Shell ("calc.exe") 'to run calculator
Shell ("cmd.exe") 'to run command prompt
or 
Shell "C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe", vbNormalFocus  'to run command prompt with a different way

if you still consider it not working, than maybe I didn't understand your needs I am sorry and I hope that someone else will get exactly what you want and that will provide necessary help
