Thread: Using variables in system()

Is there some way to use variables in a system() command?

i've tried

Code:

system("%s",firstprogrampath);

but i only get an errormessage in the stdlib.h header (line 356), too many arguments in 'int system (const char*)'

as well in the actual program

(line 107) at this point in file.

So, is there any way to use variables in system();?

edit: also, firstprogrampath[50]; is a char variable. (string variable, i think the real name is?)
