Matt's response should help you to call an external .exe (thanks, 
Matt), however...

If you only need to read a digital signal from the device, why not 
just use E-Prime's built-in "ReadPort()" function?  You had to use an 
external .exe in VB because VB does not provide any functions to read 
from or write to arbitrary I/O ports, but one of the virtues of 
E-Prime is that this ability is already built in with the added 
ReadPort() and WritePort methods.  You might want to give that a try.
