WinAPI > Executing a program

[Hachem]

Hello,
i don't how to begin i've  a lot of problem and i've been searching for more than a month (everyday) i'm really tired so i'm gonna ask maybe some of you would help me and it will be really appreciated. Anyways i'm just gonna say one problem. I wanna execute a program from Window i mean u know with stdio.h normal C program i get the .exe file when i do my prog but in windows.h i don't get it the .exe file and idk where to type my prog.
I have feeling that it's something related  to createProcess function but i don't know how to use it and where to put the pogram. For now i just want that .exe file appears and it shows a simple second like printf. I hope that you got what i meant, i'm really in need of your help, thanks.

Search the web for "CodeBlocks manual" or "CodeBlocks examples"

Examples:

I would try to run the command below to figure where you set the working directory in Code::Blocks project.
Or just read the manual links posted above.

Code: [Select]

echo %CD%

Thank your for replies but yeah i know the basics of Codeblocks i'm always using it but now i'm trying somethign new to create a window filled with programs etc. That's my project. It has to be in C and not C++. i made a window and attached to it some animations etc but the purpose of my project is missing which is executing programs like for example i want to enter some I/O like i want to read a variable N that's it for now but i don't actually know how to do.
When i execute my program a window appears i want now for example when i press Left arrow i get a a .exe file that tells me to enter a variable 'N'.
Conclusion: i want to combine a normal C program with my window. Hope that you get it, thank you for your help.
