Hi Pitchaiyan, You can use Process class methods for this purpose, check this link on MSDN.

You can do something like this on a button click or whatever event you want to bind:-

Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.FileName = "Yourfile.exe";
p.StartInfo.Arguments = String.Format(-- Your params--);
p.Start();
