I would like to enter aN ipaddress or computername in a textbox and pass it
to a program like so:

        Dim objProcess As System.Diagnostics.Process
        objProcess = New System.Diagnostics.Process()
        objProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\SMSADMIN\bin\i386\remote.exe"
        objProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "2," & txtworkstation.Text
        objProcess.Start()

The txtworkstation.Text is where I am putting in the ipaddress and need to
pass it as a string for the Arguments.

This works:
objProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "2, 10.176.29.40"
Does not work:
objProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "2," & txtworkstation.Text

Please help me

You don't have a space between the comma and the ip address. Use the
following:

"2, " & txtworkstation.Text

Or even:

string.Format("2, {0}", txtworkstation.Text)
