Thanks a lot for all the suggestions. I used the function subprocess.call ( 'c:\abc.exe c:\data\file1'), but as before the command window opens and closes very fast a value of 1 is displayed. How do I see the results?? I am sorry if I sound dumb.

The officially sanctioned way nowadays is to use the subprocess module. It supercedes all tthe previous methods being both more powerful, more flexible and fairly easy to use. All the techniques are discussed in my Using the OS topic in my tutorial.
