Launching a program from within a C#/VB SmartDevice application

This is just a quickie. If you are wondering how to launch an existing application from within your own Windows Mobile-based C# or VB.NET program, simply use the System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() method, like this:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("iexplore",""); // Start the web browser.

Another thing: having all your wisdom teeth extracted is a lot less fun than you might imagine.

    Thanks! This is much cleaner than the Pinvoking of the the CreateProcess function!

    [obligatory story]

    one day I came home to find my sister unconscious on the couch with a trickle of blood coming out of her mouth. I shake her violently to wake her, thinking she's dead or something. She's just ticked at me for waking her - she was just taking a nap after her wisdom teeth had come out.

    moral: when you take a nap, you might want to consider taping a "not dead" sign to your forehead :)
