How do I capture return value from an external exe call

[DanQ]

I need to call an external exe from my c-code and I would like to capture the exit code when it's done.  I've looked at both the LanuchExecutableEx() and system() functions and neither one does this.  With LaunchExecutableEx() I can check to see if it's done or abort it if necessary, but I don't see a way to get the exit code when it is done.  Is it possible to do this with LabWindows?

Another way to launch an executable is by using CreateProcess().  You can then use GetExitCodeProcess() to read the results.
