C# Execute another program on button click

Question

I have a C# Windows Form application. I want to execute another program that is in the same directory with a button click. I only need this code to execute another program.

I have the following code:

    using System.Diagnostics;

    private void buttonRunScript_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo start = 
                                        new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
        start.FileName = @"C:\Scripts\XLXS-CSV.exe";
    }

How can I make this work properly? It is not doing anything right now.

Answer 1

Why are u using a ProcessStartInfo, you need a Process

Process notePad = new Process();    
notePad.StartInfo.FileName   = "notepad.exe";
notePad.StartInfo.Arguments = "ProcessStart.cs"; // if you need some
notePad.Start();

This should work ;)

Answer 2

ProcessStartInfo start = new ProcessStartInfo();
start.FileName = @"C:\Scripts\XLXS-CSV.exe";
Process.Start(start);
