Problem in opening external program using C#

Hello,

 

I’m developing non commercial software using Visual C#. In the software, by clicking a button I can open under DOS program, which is named “Linear”, using code bellow

 

System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

                proc.StartInfo.FileName = "start";

                proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "Linear";

                proc.Start();

                proc.WaitForExit();

 

The Linear lives in the same folder with my software so I don’t use full path for calling Linear.

 

When I debug my software, the under DOS program could be called and no problem at all. Then, I made setup application of my software, install it in my computer and the software work smoothly.

 

The problem is when I install my software on other computers and I click the button to open the under DOS program, suddenly warning box occurs with message bellow

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

 

For example:

 

   

 

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I don’t know wheter it is caused by different environment variables or not. Even, if it is caused by different environment variables, I don’t know how to cope this. Please give me solution. Thank you before.
