Is it possible to add an executable to your project, and use it?

Asked by VBRocks in Visual Studio .NET 2005, Microsoft Visual Basic.Net, Microsoft Visual C#.Net

Hi,  I know it's possible to add an executable to your project... I've already done that (Project menu |
Add Existing Item...).

My question is, can you use it internally?  If so, how?

My situation is:  My company purchased a command line utility that we want to deploy to our clients.
I wrote an application that uses this command line utility.  So, we will have to send both executables
(mine and the command line utility) to our clients.

I would rather add the command line utility to my project, and somehow internally send the command line
arguments to it and execute it.  This would enable me to send 1 executable to our clients, instead of 2,
simplifying life, and protecting the command line utility that we purchased.

So is it possible?  

Thanks for your help.
