Start An Hummingbird Exceed Shell With Visual Basic

Hi all.

I have a script that I've finished on Solaris 10 recently. Now they want me to build a GUI for it with VB. This is my first endeavour with VB. I am using Visual Studio 2008 to write the GUI. The GUI is all done and has the string var 'Command' that I want to execute in the shell.

1. Is it possible to call the program to check to see if there is an Exceed shell open on Windows?
-If yes, feed a command stored as a variable by the VB program to it and execute it.
-If not, execute the Exceed program, wait for the user to enter name and pass, then when there is a shell execute the command in the shell.

2. Can I export all the writing that comes up in the shell from the script to a text file and have the VB GUI display it in a window in the GUI? Its something to do with stdout or $1 >> output.txt right?

Thanks for any help!
