Running a program inside a program

I have no idea what this would be called, but im sure there is a technical term like nested execution or something. Anyway I am using Visual C++ and learning all I can... I know the general structure and functions and all so if you give me code, I will more than likely understand it. All I want to know is how to call a program like I would on a command line (like the run command).

So if I went to run and typed in
"C:\Program FIles\Winamp\winamp.exe"

Winamp would run. How can I do this in Vis C++??? (not neccesarily just like that, but how can a program be called to run from inside of a program?)

Edit: I want to know how to do this in general for any program, not just winamp

Thanks in advance for any help.

-Josh
