Thanks Bob,

The app is under DOS.
In the app there is many "Edit Area".
My Service App should supply only a certain area, not all.
I am afraid, if I run the app from my app and redirect the console I/O, it will permanent, until I terminate the app.

Actually my service app, will get information from a certain hardware (Card Reader) that connected to COM port. Usually the operator will typing the card number, but in this case we will try to supply it directly from card reader.

Is there any others ways?

Regards,
LTS
