Is it possible to open another console application using VB.NET and be able to pass arguments and parameters to it. One window has the title, logo and layout, and the other window does the processing? With both windows being one application.

It is, but way?

Its just a process of learning. I remember I had done it before about 2-3 years ago but cannot remember how.

Think you neeed to set one of the applications as parent, and the othere as a child. Than there should be no problems in doing so.

But you should rather consider using separate threads instead.

Where would I go about multi-threading for console applications? Or at least research it. I did a Google search but nothing related to consoles.
