  In my experience, E.EXE is pretty much run of the mill.  I've certainly
  encountered no problems running it via DosExecPgm or WinStartApp.

  Are you sure that you are not thinking of EPM and LXPM, with their daft
  client/server nonsense ?

  Even they can be started with DosExecPgm without any bother.  You just
  have to be prepared for the call to return *well* before the user has
  finished editing the file.  (-:
