My code doesn't work:

   STARTUPINFO StartupInfo;
   setmem(&StartupInfo, sizeof(STARTUPINFO), 0);
   StartupInfo.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFO);
   StartupInfo.hStdInput = reinterpret_cast <HANDLE> (STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
   StartupInfo.hStdOutput = NULL;
   StartupInfo.hStdError   = NULL;
   StartupInfo.dwFlags     = STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW | STARTF_USESTDHANDLES;
   StartupInfo.wShowWindow = SW_HIDE;

   PROCESS_INFORMATION ProcessInformation;
   setmem(&ProcessInformation, sizeof(PROCESS_INFORMATION), 0);

   bool Created = CreateProcess(MyExe.c_str(), MyParams.c_str(), 0, 0, true,
CREATE_DEFAULT_ERROR_MODE, 0, 0, &StartupInfo, &ProcessInformation);

   if(Created) {
      WaitForSingleObject(ProcessInformation.hProcess, INFINITE);
      CloseHandle(ProcessInformation.hProcess);
      CloseHandle(ProcessInformation.hThread);
   }

Maybe that "<" pipe ?
Thanks
