System.Diagnostics.Process - How To Reference

Hope someone can help me.

How do i go about referencing the system object, in rticular to reference a process. Is it a reference that needs to be added into my project or am I missing something.

When I say referencing I mean that the VB editor recognises that it is a reserved word and pops up the intellisense window.

thanks

System.Diagnostics is in VB.NET, yet you have posted in the Legacy VB forum. Which are you using?

that in itself is good enough to answer my question. I am currently using vb6, due to migrate to .net shortly when our customers upgrade their operating systems.

I need to be able to reference a process so that i can run a dos command using shell and then wait for it to finish.
