running a program from a program
--{You fight like a dairy farmer!}
If you want another method, you could create a new thread and then run it that way. On a unix machine, the call is execlp or something like that. There''s tons of stuff on the net about it.

There is also what is called a "Script", where you run several executables within the main loop, without jeopardizing the initial program.
A Good scripting language is Python, Lua is also ok.

What .h or .lib files do you need to use system(); ??
Im getting : C:\Cpp\bored3\main.cpp(94) : error C2065: ''system'' : undeclared identifier

for createprocess() or winexec() i imagine the program to run is the parameter...?

was just curious...

Umm I think that's defined in stdlib.h, by the way that's just like typing something into your DOS prompt that's why it works, though you have more control with CreateProcess() and if you want to find out how to use it look it up in MSDN.
