Hi.
I have a dos program which I run with win 7 64 bit dosbox emulator, however I am only able to send through the data when using win 32 to excel with a little program I've written with csharp, and it automatically starts and runs excel. BUT with the dosbox emulator, i am unable to do this, is there a way to do this? Note: when I want to run the win program in the dosbox screen it says "this program cannot be run in dos mode"..
Thank you.

DOSBox isn't the "command prompt" it's a self-contained (except for the filesystem) emulator of a PC running MS-DOS

You would have to modify DOSBox code to do what you want since out of the box DOSBox cannot do so.
