DOS command execution

[lavanya]

I use ACCESS 2000.
I have a form that does some processing and then has to
run a command line utility based on form input, wait for
it to finish and then continue. What is the best way to
do this ?
DO I use the Runapp or shell command? It seems that the
shell command will not finish for the execution before
proceeding to the next statement.
Any help will be appreciated.
