I wish to know how to make my generated .EXE program start another .exe program if, for example, the user clicks on a command button. thak you
 
Check out the Shell command for the simplest way of doing this.
 
Hi
If you just want to open the program
the code would be shell("path\to the .exe")
If you want to execute and open a file you should use
the shellexecute command. Mode info about shell execute in your API library
