Getting exit code from a batch file

Question

In C#, how can I capture the exit code of batch file I launch via Process.Start()?

Also, is there any limitation of running a batch file via Windows Service (The service being the invoker)?

Thanks

Sample:

Process prc = Process.Start(@"C:\file.bat");
prc.WaitForExit();
int exitCode = prc.ExitCode;

If you will try to start some process that interacts with UI from Windows Service you will run into a "Services isolation in Session 0" problem.
