Solution 1

(Not sure I got you) You may use the system[^] function (or ShellExecute[^] or CreateProcess[^]).

Could possibly mean "pass back to command prompt", which would mean using std::out or printf.

I think he wants to start a Windows application using command line arguments. In that case he could try this

VB

Dim arg As String()
        arg = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
        For i As Integer = 1 To arg.Length - 1
            Select Case arg(i).ToLower
                Case "a"
                    'Insert code here
                Case "b"
                    'Insert code here
                Case "c"
                    'Insert code here
                Case Else
                    MessageBox.Show("Unknown argument " & arg(i) & ". Programm starts without arguments", "Oops")                    
            End Select
        Next
