I created a collection of programs into I want to incorporat all my programs! I will run the program and select wich program I want to run! How exactly do i do that? Would it work if I would do a FILE *fp
with fopen and open the compiled source code, the program! I am running Linux!
I AM SORRY I CAN NOT POST THE CODE BECAUSE I WOULD GET BANNED FROM CPROGRAMMING!
You have essentially two choices: Either use the system() function to execute an external program.

Alternatively, (this is the advanced method) you could have a design where your standalone applications are compiled as shared libraries with a small stub that essenitally is your main function that does little else than call the function in the shared library (perhaps some parsing of argc/argv). Then in your "all in one" software, you link to all of the shared libraries, and have the small call to the shared library.
The first suggestion is the easy one, the second suggestion is definitely more difficult if you are not familiar with shared libraries and advanced programming concepts.

Compilers can produce warnings - make the compiler programmers happy: Use them!

GIYF. Searching the FAQ isn't a bad idea either.
