The idea to "integrate application to another application" is inherently bad. You need to try to develop, not integrate (but it includes using libraries). In worst case, you can integrate application with application, only if both are designed to support some of the collaboration mechanisms. You know, processes are highly isolated, are executed in different address spaces and usually are not designed for collaboration, especially in windowed applications.

Now, "my application to run simultaneously" is not an "integration" at all. You could simple start them both from the same batch file, but normally it is totally useless. Your user knows how to start two applications in parallel; Windows is a multi-process OS. :-)
