In win32, how do I make one program start another program? So like, for my game, the opening program lets the user choose if they want to play the game or use the editor, and whichever they pick, it opens.

Look up ShellExecute (part of the Win32 API).

If ShellExecute isn''t beefy enough for you, take a look at CreateProcess. ShellExecute ought to be enough though.
