Calling programs from a VC++ program

[Aditya Rao]

hi, does anyone know how to call a program(such as mspaint, word or any other program/ executable present) from our vc++ application. i.e. on executing an application it should call another windows program. thanks aditya

Why? Those are simply a holdover from the days of Unix. Unless you are doing 16-bit work, they have no place in Windows development.
