Is is possible to run cmd commands straight from VB

Is is possible to run cmd commands straight from VB. I want to be able to set up a command in vb without showing the black cmd window

path= C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin
java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft.jar nogui

Is it possible to run it without making a batch file? ( I want be be able to change some of the values in the commands to)

I found Shell(pathname[,windowstyle]) but I am not quite sure how to use it or if it is the right code.

You can use the Process class.

Dim pi As new ProcessStartInfo("C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java")
pi.Arguments = "-Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft.jar nogui"

Process.Start(pi)

I have use ProcessStartInfo to hold the process information before starting it off.
