When you say pass a command to DOS do you mean just run a dos
application or, send commands to an existing runing DOS application?

If you want to run the app, you just use shellexec, if you need to
pass info to it, the only way I remember it being possible was to get
the handle of the window and send commands using either copy/paste
from the clipboard or send postmessage commands with key presses.
