im using MSVC 6.0 if that helps, i just dont know how to put in win32 functions :/. but if you remmber plz say

Ahhhh I just figured out what you're trying to say. You want to open the program via windows using a function in your program... yeah, you need to use a win32 call. At first I thought you meant you wanted to decompile a program into coherent C++ lol. Unfortunately I have no idea what it is. Maybe look up a tutorial.
