You may be in for some problems but you do have a few choices.
1) If the programs are built on DLLs (HIGHLY doubtful, but who knows)
then you can use the Call Library Function to call the DLLs
2) If they are simply EXEs you can try using the System Exec function
and run the exectuables.
This all of course specualtes that you are running Windows.
LabVIEW wont run under DOS.
