So the question is how to add to c++ builder 2010 some external .exe file? Let’s say that i made some program in visual basic and have the exe file, so that does not need to make the same code in c++ i want to just include that exe in my project? Is it possible to make portable application one exe that have inside him self another exe file (maybe in resource path)?
How to call it in code if it is one exe in other? I know to call it by system function, or other by putting direction to the exe, but how to do that if it is on same address as are main exe?

I don’t understand exactly what you’re trying to accomplish. If you want to use the functionality of a given program, you’re going to have to know things about how that program works.
If you want to take a given executable, and call it as you would a shell script, then you would need to start the given program with it’s standard input and standard output redirected to a pipe. An example of how to do that is available on MSDN. If you want to be able to just look at the Visual Basic classes and methods in the target EXE, as you could do with Visual Basic .NET, you are out of luck, as an arbitrary executable does not understand the concept of a class or method.
