DOS prompt Active X Control/Component?

[Roni Sutton]

I need the ability to go out to DOS and run a program from a vb application. I will also need to send multiple keystrokes after the program begins running until I finally send the exit command. I am very familiar with doing similar things with a Rumba Object X control, but can't find anything that will do the same type of thing with the DOS prompt. Basically, I'd like to add the DOS prompt to my components list, drag it onto the form, name it and reference it just like I do with Rumba. Is this possible? I don't see anything in the components list that even vaguely looks like it might be a command prompt. Have any of you done something like this?

Thanks,
Roni
