Dear all,

How to execute (run) an external program?
Just like the command (statement) 'run' of Visual Foxpro

Thanks a lot

Before you buy.

There are a few ways of accomplishing this in Delphi. The prefered method is
CreateProcess, although personally I favor ShellExecute because it is a lot
less work... one function call without any associated structures or
callbacks. There is also WinExec, but you have to keep in mind that is
mostly used now to maintain backward compatibilty and may not be around in
the next release of Delphi.

Good luck!!
