may be te way you are looking to do the things is wrong.
Tell us examples of commands you want to run.
Let us see what kind of commands.
Because if you want for example file i/o operations like 
move/rename/delete/create folders/files
write/read files
you can do all this in the language you don't need outside commands.
How ever is not the intend of a programming language to interact with cmd line 
commands.
In a framework/programming language is suposed that you will use and you will 
have libraries for all operations you want.
How ever, you can interact with the external things via 
system.diagnostics.process.
Other way isn't.
So be more explicit, what you want to achieve.

  Got that far, but apart from using 
  System.Console.WriteLine to write strings to the console output, without them 
executing, and also trying to start a System.Diagnostics.Process like have done 
in past to launch external apps, I don't seem to be able to find out how to 
actually execute a command, and it always finishes off with something like 
'Press any key' when it finishes executing.



  Stay well

    No you're not.  All you have to do is to use the Console App template in 
VS2010 or 2008.  That will set up the correct namespaces and such and then just 
tell it what you want the program to do.

    Ok, next silly question...

     

    Since have never really created command line/console applications, am now 
just trying to figure out how to get a console application created in C# to 
execute command line commands, and then how to get it to close/exit itsself 
after operation?

     

    Idea would be to create a slightly trumped up target for something like a 
send to shortcut that can do a bit more than your average batch file.

     

    Have looked for simple examples, but am obviously, again, using incorrect 
search terms or something - LOL!

     

    TIA
