Hi,
 
I want your help.
I have a MFC application (Created in Visual Studio 2008) and I need to launch another dialog based application .exe file (Also created in Visual Studio 2008) on clicking a button from the first application.
 
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the solution. Will it cause any thread related or process related issues???

Yes and no. You should read carefully the documentation. I mean there aren't striking side effects, however you are launching another process. If the two processes need to communicate than you have to use some IPC mechanism.
