<br>Named pipes sounds good? I want to make no or little modification to the console application.<br><br>Whats the best way of going about this?<br><br>

fensterz,<br><br>&gt; I want to make no or little modification to the console application.<br><br>Well, you can't get the console app to accept the input and send it to it's console window as output without modifying it! That's a given.<br><br>&gt; Named pipes sounds good? <br>&gt; Whats the best way of going about this?<br><br>Use MSDN (the online version if you don't have the CDROM) to find examples and samples of using named pipes. They are pretty old so there are plenty of articles and samples.<br><br>Good luck<br>-pete
