vc w/clr: How to call an executable?

[poojo hackma]

Does anyone know how to call an executable from within Visual C++ 2005
Express (using the CLR)?

For example, click Button1 to launch Microsoft Paint:

System::Void Button1_Clicked(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^
e)
{
// what can I use to open MS Paint?
}

Thanks.

Take a look at the System.Diagnostics.Process class:
