Process XXXX Was Not Found Despite It Being Active

I was using the code below but it says it cannot find process XXXX but if i press continue it doesnt work as expected:

Me.Visible = False
Dim ProcId As Integer
ProcId = Shell("c:windowssystem32cmd.exe", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

[Code]....

What im trying to do is execute cscript from the open command prompt and pass it a vbscript by typing into using sendkeys but it doesn't finish typing the keys. Can i use process.start also or does someone think that i have made an logic error
in code above? Its in the form load event.

Note: code cannot be put in a button because this is an program that will run hidden and i need this vbscript to run just as a test but eventually i want the program to act like a service but except its really a hidden process and not a service. Also, for clarity its for my kinect project. The reason for hidden program is because end user should not see the program running because the end user is a kid or teacher and they might close down the program hence making it useless.

Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. - "Sherlock holmes" "speak softly and carry a big stick" - theodore roosevelt.
