Hi First make sure that the AML script can run from ARC. Then using the below code to execute the command public void ExecuteCommandSync(object command) { try { // create the ProcessStartInfo using arc as the program to be run // and \&run\ as the parameters. // Incidentally &run tells arc that we want it to execute the command that follows // and then exit. // command is the  arg1 arg2 ... System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo procStartInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(arc \&run\  + command); // The following commands are needed to redirect the standard output. // This means that it will be redirected to the Process.StandardOutput StreamReader. procStartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; procStartInfo.UseShellExecute = false; // Do not create the black window. procStartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true; // Now we create a process assign its ProcessStartInfo and start it System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); proc.StartInfo = procStartInfo; proc.Start(); // Get the output into a string string result = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd(); // Display the command output. Console.WriteLine(result); } catch (Exception objException) { // Log the exception } } Go through the link regarding how to excute the command in Code Project site http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/25983/How-to-Execute-a-Command-in-C# You might also find following links as useful http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.3/index.cfm?TopicName=using%20amls%20with%20script%20tools http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/77382-Please-let-me-know-How-to-call-Arc-macro-language-script-from-c-code.?p=271715#post271715 http://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/0104/geoprocess.html Regards Upamanyu
