Threading in VB.Net Console Application

I have a console application that is built in VB.Net. Now I have a timer in that application. All I want to do is at a particyualr time i will call another exe (which is built in VB 6.0) and again get the control back to this console application. Now what is happening is that I am being able to call the second exe from the console application , but then the control is开发者_如何学JAVA not returning back to the same console application. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance

Process.Start(myProgramPathAndFileName)

This should create a new process and return control to your console app.

You can do more with this process by storing the return value:

MyProcess = Process.Start(myProgramPathAndFilename)

Then call this when your application exits

MyProcess.Kill
