To All,


I have been attempting to execute the following program within the
Python environment:

Myprogram.exe, which means this is an executable file!!

I would usually execute this program (with the appropriate arguments)
by going to following directory within MS-DOS (Windows XP):

C:\myprogramfolder\run> Myprogram.exe 1 1 acc 0


The executable would execute perfectly.


However, when I would try to execute the following lines of source
code within a python script file:

import os

os.system(r"C:\myprogramfolder\run\Myprogram.exe 1 1 acc 0")

Try this:

import subprocess
retval = subprocess.call(
['Myprogram.exe', '1', '1', 'acc', '0'],
cwd='C:\myprogramfolder\run')
