Hello. Could someone please tell me if you can run a command line from a VB6 program? If you could provide some sample code it would be helpful -- I'm not that advanced with VB.

Basically, I just want to run "c:\folder\filename.bat" or equivalent. Very simple ... I just don't know how to do it.

Thank you!
