Default starting a msdos exe from excel

I have old Fortran papplication that saves results into a text file. Author
of program, can rewrite it so format is not the problem, he could rewrite
it to XML text file or something like that.
The problem is: how to execute that exe from a VBA sub (and to stop
executing the next line of the sub until Fortran exe saved data into text
file).
I should import result data from text file in the next few lines of the same
sub.

Actually, this is command line exe, compiled under win 2000 with old
MSFortran Powerstation4.0 compiler.
