First things first, this is just something simple, you need to rename
cmd.exe.000 to cmd.exe that is the same as any cmd or command file you
will get off of a computer.
Next you need to make sure that you register the redirect.dll or this
will not work, I repeat this will not work.
This is a proof of concept that you can use a vb app to talk to a dos window
and not only that but read what is sent back in the vb app. If you would
like to replace the cmd.exe with your own command file that is fine but
please make the appropriate changes in the app to show where that cmd.exe
or command.exe is located on your computer.
You can see the source to that dll in the dll.source folder, although
that is written in c++ by (unknown) but whoever they are, they did a great job..
