    How to hide the DOS console of a program started by a dotnet application on Win98

    I have a .NET Windows application which launches another .NET console
    application using
    Start() method in the Process class. I set the StartInfo.Creat eNoWindow to
    true. But
    on Windows98, the console still shows up (on XP and 2000, no window shows
    up).
    Could anyone tell me how to hide the console window?

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Jason

      HI

      Go into the properties of your project, an check that the "Output type" is
      set to "Windows Application" and to "Console Application".

          Hi,

          Try setting,

          StartInfo.Windo wStyle = ProcessWindowSt yle.Hidden

          this should do the trick...

          Regards,

              Do you have control of the other application (source?). If so, you could
              call "FreeConsol e". However, to achieve this just with Process, I believe
              you need to make sure you redirect StandardInput, Output, and Error.

                  Thanks you for your response. I tried that. It didn't work.
