How can i execute a DOS command (i.e dir) in LabWindow?

[LabWindow]

I tried to execute the following command :
system("dir") but LabWindow seems to not like it. Anybody have any idea how should i go about it? Thanx!

DIR is an internal command, which means it's included in command.com, not in its own executable. system() is looking for an executable. So the correct syntax is
system("command.com /c dir");
Even under Windows 2000, sometimes it helps to remember some ancient DOS stuff.
