C++ programming help!

Howdy folks,

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

Wecome back!

(oops I just paged you)

anyways, I only know the way to do this in dos C++, sorry

look at it's help files about doing that


oh yeah and the site, it was moved to a different server.

Thanks for the reply Uranium.  Just to give further background on the problem, I posted it in the Networking section.  This link will take you to that section.  I've basically solved that problem with the program that I made.  What it does is that it creates a connection to a remote server and authenticates the user with that NT server.  That solved my domain issues.

That was fine and dandy with me.  However, 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.  So, 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.  I hate trying to program for a Windows OS...gggrrrrr.
