To have your command execute another command try: Shell("command parameters") this works in gwbasic and may work for what you're doing as well. Now to solve the hit any key to exit problem, one way to do it is to make a batch file in which to run your program and put an exit statement at the end of that batch file just after the line that runs your program. -----Original Message----- From: programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jacob Kruger Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 15:47 To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: C# console application executing command line commands? 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.

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!
