    And what is your question? In a console application, you can access the parameters in your `Main` method using the `args` parameter. – Daniel Hilgarth Aug 23 '11 at 07:14

    On Google, I found your [exact same question][1], which is already answered on Code Project. It was right there, between all the others answers I got when I googled for the title of your post.

Use command arguments for this :

  static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        if (args.Length > 0)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("You Provided " + args[0]);
        }

    }

and now you can execute myexe.exe "hello" and it will print

You Provided hello

to make your app receive parameters

static void Main(string [] args)
            {         
                Application.EnableVisualStyles();
                Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);

                // the args is the arguments you want to pass to this application
                Application.Run();

            }

to call it from a c# application 

static void CallProcess(string[] args)
        {
            // create a new process
            Process pro= new Process();

            pro.StartInfo.FileName   = "exe path";
            pro.StartInfo.Arguments = args;

            pro.Start();
        }

Main() method has arguments which will hold your "hello": 

static int Main(string[] args) 
{
     System.Console.WriteLine(args[0]); //this will output "hello", when you call yourApp.exe "hello"
}
