Query 1 -

The easiest way that comes to mind is via TCP connection (assuming they are at least on the same local network). 

They have a decent white paper on TCP in LabVIEW here: https://www.ni.com/en/support/documentation/supplemental/06/basic-tcp-ip-communication-in-labview.ht...

You can also find some nice samples of how to do this in LabVIEW via the Example Finder.

From a LabVIEW window, go to Help -> Example Finder -> Networking (folder) -> TCP & UDP (folder). Then select TCP Communicator - Active.vi (this sends text via TCP) and TCP Communicator - Passive.vi (this receives text via TCP and displays it).  There are also many more helpful example VIs in this directory.

As for the vc++, I am assuming you mean Microsoft's Visual C++?  (Correct me if I'm wrong).  If so, they have complete code for a simple TCP Client and/or Server here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms737889%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

Query 2 -

You can use the System Exec VI to run an external .exe file:

Executes a system command. Use the System Exec VI to execute or launch other Windows–based applications or Linux command-line applications from within VIs. With the System Exec VI, you execute a system-level command line that can include any parameters supported by the application you want to launch.
