The function I wanted was. Just thought id post so This thread could help somebody else.

CreateProcess(NULL, " C;\pathtoexe.exe ", NULL, NULL, FALSE,
                             // Suppress the DOS box.
                             CREATE_NO_WINDOW | NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS,
                             NULL, NULL, &si, &pi);
