Calling Unix command from Visual Basic Button Click

Hi all

help 4 calling a unix command in a server from Visual Basic Client

I have been developing softwate using informix on SCO UNIX platform. After compilation informix produces *.4ge program. It will work like as any unix command. and if i am running *.4ge program from server, it produces some reports. That I can display in windows client by using ftp.

From server I can get reports to windows client using ftp.

Now I am designing some gui in Visual Basic. and my question is how can i run that unix command when the user click a button from windows client to show the report in the windows client itself ?.

tanks in advance
