I have two console applications. I want one to launch another one so
that the new process launches in its own command window. To date,
I've only started new processes with the 'CreateProcess' call, but
that always seems to launch the new process in the same command window
as the existing one. How can I get a new one to launch?

Thanks!

I haven't actually tried it but it looks like you set the
CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE flag in the dwCreationFlags
parameter of the CreateProcess() call.

this code you can add in to ur one console application............
in CreateProcess function in second parameter just give the path of ur
second console application
path means path of exe file of second console application
still if u have doubt u can come back to me

The Create_new_console flag was EXACTLY what I needed. Works
perfectly. Thanks
