Dim Proc As New System.Diagnostics.Process
Proc.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = "C:\"
Proc.StartInfo.FileName = "test.exe"
Proc.Start()

When I paste this code in VB and exec the program, test.exe opens up but all I see is a blank cmd window titled "C:\test.exe". I know it is working because Esc 2 times and Y (for yes) quits the program like it should. So it is working, but with a blank output window. Any ideas?
