Thanks.

Yes, it is. You will want to call the static Start method on the
Process class. This will run your DOS program and you can optionally wait
for the end of the execution or continue to process while the process runs
in the background.
Hope this helps.

If my DOS app reads a text file during execution that's in the directory
where the EXE is, will it be able to read it? The problem is that during
execution, it tells me that it's not finding the config file necessary to
run the application (Error opening file...).
