Dear windows guru,

Is it posible to get an MS windows task to spawn another task which
MS windows will then recognize?
For example I want to write an application which can start up other
applications if the user takes some  action.
i.e. something like.....
long FAR PASCAL myWndProc(etc...etc..)
{
	switch(user_action)
	{
 	case EXCEL: system("win excel");
 	case WORD:  system("win word");
 	.
 	.
 	etc.. etc..
	}
}

Email will be mucho mucho appreciated.
Thanx
