Well, I use Borland, but this is what I use:

    STARTDATA  StartData;

    memset( &StartData, 0, sizeof( STARTDATA )  );
    
                          ---- FULL SCREEN ----- --------- PM --------
    StartData.Length      = sizeof( STARTDATA ); = sizeof( STARTDATA );
    StartData.Related     = FALSE;               = TRUE;
    StartData.FgBg        = FALSE;               = FALSE;
    StartData.TraceOpt    = 0;                   = 0;
    StartData.PgmTitle    = PgmTitle;            = PgmTitle;
    StartData.PgmName     = PgmName;             = PgmName;
    StartData.PgmInputs   = CmdLine;             = PgmInput;
    StartData.TermQ       = 0;                   = 0;
    StartData.Environment = 0;                   = 0;
    StartData.InheritOpt  = 1;                   = 0;
    StartData.SessionType = 3;                   = 1;
    StartData.IconFile    = 0;                   = 0;
    StartData.PgmHandle   = 0;                   = 0;
    StartData.PgmControl  = 0;                   = 0;


    Ret = DosStartSession( &StartData, &PidSession, &ProcessId );

The difference if the StartData.SessionType, but I included the rest as an example.

Bye, Johan.
