I had tried that, unfortunately I can't tell that it is doing anything 
and because of the way it is being used I don't know how I can debug 
what is occurring.  It is either not launching anything at all or it 
opens and then it closes it so quickly I have no tell tale. 
If I put it in as:
ADDRESS CMD 'start "4os2 maximised" /max d:\utils\4os2\4os2.exe'
It isn't minimized but it also doesn't have focus so it opens behind 
other windows. 
Also if I type exit in this window then it closes but is replaced by a 
cmd.exe (the one that presumably launched 4os2 with this method.  
Closing with the button in the upper left closes it without the cmd.exe 
window coming up.
