Default Running a batch file from VB

I am trying to execute a batch file from visual basic.
While the VB help suggests ways to execute DLL or enable
OLE objects, these are well beyond my skill area. I can't
find anything specific in help to allow me to run a batch
file automatically.

When running the program manually, I open a command prompt
window and run the batch file from there. I would like to
automate this from Excel.

Thx in advance, GC
p.s. How do you search the newsgroup aside from scrolling
through the postings?
