Hi everyone,

I have a requirement to execute the insert scripts using sqlplus(ORACLE DB). Here, I need to prompt the user to give input as drop, create and insert(DCI) or Create, insert(CI) or only insert(I).

So based on the option given by user I need to perform process using "sqlplus.exe".
Can any one help regarding this.

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean Command Prompt, CMD.EXE application? Chances are, you don't need it.
You can start the process you want directly, as Abhinav just suggested, using System.Diagnostics.Process, read for more information: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.process.aspx[^].

Simply provide the start parameters along with the exe in the start command of the process.

e.g.

MIDL

Process.Start("IExplore.exe", "www.northwindtraders.com");
