Have you tried to create a batch file and use JumpOutReturn to run it? I
have done several APW programs and have no trouble with DOS exe. files.

Did you put the path for the exe. file in the command line and if you use
an exe. program to run a file such as EDIT a .BAT file, you nedd put path
for both EDIT and the .BAT file.
