Is there anyway to input ms dos commands and have them run in ms dos during run time? I will take any suggestions, thanks!
 
You can shell to a command prompt (DOS) window:

Shell ("cmd /c copy c:\fred.txt + c:\fred.txt c:\C.txt")

If you want to see and interact with the DOS prompt then miss out the /c (which closes the window directly)
