WinWord.exe, for example, can be started as a command line. I believe all
you would need to do in this case is to create a winforms application. If
the user starts it from a command line it should behave as you expect. Just
include your logic for the argument checks and write to Console.out.

Hi,.
I've written a program which has both a command line interface
and Windows form interface, however it isn't quite working
correctly.
When run from command line with no arguments it should display
the Windows form. The form is being displayed but the command
only returns when the form is closed. I want the command line to
return immediately, leaving the form displayed.
When run from Windows Explorer (by double-clicking on
TheProgram.exe) it should display the Windows form only. The
form is being displayed but a console window is also being
displayed.
When run from the command line with the correct number of
arguments it should operate on the supplied arguments and display
a message. This is working correctly.
If the correct number of arguments is supplied it should display
the command help. This is working correctly.
In Project - Properties, the Output type is 'Windows Application'
and Startup object is 'Sub Main'.
Sub Main is basically:
arguments = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If arguments.Length = 1 Then
'No command line arguments so display the Windows
form
Dim frmMain As New frmWindows_Form
Application.Run(frmMain)
ElseIf arguments.Length <> 3 Then
'Required arguments not supplied, so display the help
Output_Command_Help()
Else
'Run command
Any help much appreciated. Thanks.
