program to program communcation

[elfanddot]

Thank you even if you can't answer!
Does anyone know of or explain a method of either communicating between two program (one main, one child)
in a dos environment.
I need to either start a program from within another program with some starting arguments and ignore the program, or i need to constantly pass information between the two. the first method is prefered because the starting arguments are ment to be the address of a class where the main program can change value and the child program can read the values. although any working method to get me going will work fine.

no!
Dos is not a multiprograming env. Even if u try that then what happend is like u'll create a process and execute some code in there. In that period of time parent process cannt come up coz of multiprogramming isnt supported and after the completion of child machine will b able to run the parent...
