CMD Command with TextBoxX.Text

Hey I'm making a tool that encrypts URL's, now I try to make a small form to get the IP from an URL, I tried CMD,



Button1_Click

Code:

Shell("CMD.exe")
SendKeys.Send("nslookup" + TextBox1.Text)
SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}")

or

Code:

Shell("CMD.exe /k nslookup" + TextBox1.Text)

Both faild, TextBox1.Text is the URL btw...


Any ideas?

 

What you need to do is use the ProcessStartInfo class to redirect the input and output streams from the application so you can read and write to them.

Here is an example that shows how to redirect the input stream, and here is an example for the output stream.
