How start another program from .NET?

In order to initiate a new process using the .NET Framework, use the Process.Start method. More complex start-up parameters can be specified using the ProcessStartInfo class. This class allows output redirection, specification of command line parameters, etc.

Both the Process and ProcessStartInfo classes reside in the System.Diagnostics namespace.
