Run in WinNT w/o a DOS window.

[emart]

I wrote a program to call SAS.EXE via the system function.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, we do not want it to open a DOS window.&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there a simple way to avoid the DOS window.&nbsp;&nbsp;SAS does it's own<br>windows.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Ed Martin

If SAS.EXE is a Windows program then use:<br>CreateProcess<br><br>OR<br><br>WinExec&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>Though WinExec is mainly there for backwards compatability. <p> <br><a href=mailto:Kim_Christensen@telus.net>Kim_Christensen@telus.net</a><br><a href=

What is required to use CreateProcess?&nbsp;&nbsp;I use Dev-C++<br>compiler and the function is not documented.&nbsp;&nbsp;Does<br>it require a header?<br><br>Thanks.<br>Ed Martin

emart,<br><br>CreateProcess is used in Win32 programs only.... It's not valid for DOS programs. #include &lt;winbase.h&gt;<br> <p> <br><a href=mailto:Kim_Christensen@telus.net>Kim_Christensen@telus.net</a><br><a href=
