Hi Ashish ,

Ya we can call a non SAP program from SAP program.

For example we can call a EXE program from the SAP program using the RFC connection created in SM59.

In Sm 59 you can create a TCP/IP connection and give the path of the executable there.

CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>EXECUTE

This will do ..

search for examples and read documentation

You can directly call any exe program from SAP program by using ws_execute FM and output can be capture into internal table. This technic will be much useful to interface third party instrument. The exe program should be available in the presentation server where thrid party system is connected
