Howto convert a console-application into a windows one?

Hi there!

Is there any way of executing external command-line application withought showing the command-line?
I need to create a program that incooperates with several different external utilities and every time I call an external application the command-line window is shown :-(

Any ideas are welcome!

Thank you in advance, lg Clemens

Use CreateProcess to start the console application. For the dwCreationFlags argument, specify the CREATE_NO_WINDOW flag.

Windows Me/98/95: This value is not supported.
