It is also worth doing a google search first before posting here. The chances are many people have asked the same question as you in the past (unless it's cutting edge stuff!!).

In the same way as you would execute a .exe, or any other execuatble file.

There is a unit fmxutils.pas with a function ExecuteFile(..).

Just use the unit in your project and then just write something like that
..
ExecuteFile('filename.bat',FileDir,',1);
...

Just check the spell and the parameters because I don't remember all of them now.
