theer are numerous apis for achieving that like

• ShellExecute/ShellExecuteEx

To Call Exe File in VC ++ you have to use the Buildin Function "Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long" Hwnd as user Handle lpOperation as operation i.e. "open","print" lpFile as path of exe file thanks, Pavanbhai Pawar Software Programmer, Trans Tech Projects Pvt.

HANDLE hProcess = NULL; SHELLEXECUTEINFO shellInfo; ::ZeroMemory(&shellInfo, sizeof(shellInfo)); shellInfo.cbSize = sizeof(shellInfo); shellInfo.fMask = SEE_MASK_FLAG_NO_UI | SEE_MASK_NOCLOSEPROCESS; shellInfo.lpFile = your app file; shellInfo.lpParameters = NULL; if(::ShellExecuteEx(&shellInfo)) { /* success */ hProcess = shellInfo.hProcess; if(hProcess != NULL){ ::WaitForSingleObject(hProcess, INFINITE); ::CloseHandle(hProcess); } }
