Hello,

Could someone give me a clue? I am building a "smart device" application
under VS2003(VB), and find that "Shell" is not supported. I don't find a
"Call", "Start Process", or "Run". How do I run a simple .exe from a smart
device application? Thanks in advance. Al
 
OpenNETCF has a Process class that allows you to run things. You can use
the Smart Device Framework to get this capability and many, many more, or
just look at the source and do the same thing in your own code.

Al,

A very little sample in a nice way.

\\\Notepad
Dim p As New Process
Dim pi As New ProcessStartInfo
pi.arguments = "c:\windows\win.ini"
pi.FileName = "notepad.exe"
p.startinfo = pi
p.Start()
///

I hope this helps,

Cor
