Hi all,
I need help!! I am fairly new at VB and I have already tried searching for the answer... I managed to open edit.com file with Commandbutton1 using this code,

e.g:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Shell ("edit.com e:\test")
End Sub

Problem is: Now i have command button2 and textbox1. I want the data or value in the textbox1 to be entered at the above edit.com application at a specific line when i click command button2.

e.g: the data in textbox1 is "help" n i want the word "help" to be at line 5 at edit.com application after i click the command button2.

Please help me , give me some examples. hereby i have attached pics of the task that i need to do

to open edit application go to, (start -> run -> edit).

thanks in advance,
