API for running harddrive formatting and running an arbitrary command

[lenaserg]

A couple of questions:

1. What is the API name for running an arbitrary Dos command in win32/MFC ? Much like the system() system call in Unix.

2. What is the API name for harddrive formatting ?

Pls reply to lenaserg AT hotmail.com

Maybe ::SHFormatDrive() (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/reference/functions/shformatdrive.asp) can help you.

Cheers
