Start other EXE programs in the MFC Program

ShellExecute (null, "open", "http://www.sina.com.cn", null, null, sw_shownormal );
// ShellExecute (null, "open", "C: \ Documents and Settings \ Administrator \ Desktop \ xq1 \ testchess0.exe", null, null, sw_shownormal );
You can also use a shellexecuteex function, where you can set the working directory path.
 
Some colleagues used shellexecutebut did not use the working directory path of .exe. Therefore, some images cannot be called.

Or:

Zeromemory (& startupinfo, sizeof (startupinfo ));
Startupinfo. cb = sizeof startupinfo; // only compulsory field
If (CreateProcess ("C: \ winnt \ notepad.exe", null,

Null, & startupinfo, & processinfo ))
{
Waitforsingleobject (processinfo. hprocess, infinite );
