C++ programming help!

[Hulaboy]

Howdy folks,

Glad to see that the board is back up again. SPAMWhat happened to the site by the way? SPAMI have a question that I hope someone can help me with. SPAMI have a program that needs to execute another file (another executable) in a different directory. SPAMI was wondering if anybody knows of a function in C++ that'll do this or of another way? SPAMAny help would be EXTREMELY appreciated. SPAMI'm beginning to lose hair because of this problem. *sigh*

Thanks for the reply Uranium. SPAMJust to give further background on the problem, I posted it in the Networking section. SPAMThis link (http://www.netsmog.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=windows&action=display&num=1008851204) will take you to that section. SPAMI've basically solved that problem with the program that I made. SPAMWhat it does is that it creates a connection to a remote server and authenticates the user with that NT server. SPAMThat solved my domain issues.

That was fine and dandy with me. SPAMHowever, the people that I work for weren't happy with the idea of having the users click on an extra icon to get their program (that was poorly written to begin with) to work. SPAMSo, I had to make that program that created the connection and now I have to find a way for that same program to run the other program's executable to launch it. SPAMI hate trying to program for a Windows OS...gggrrrrr.
