Create a new Program Item in the Group and have it execute COMMAND.COM.

They are both the same thing.  The only difference is that one executes
in fullscreen mode and the other executes in a window.  You can actually
toggle between the two modes, but I forget what keystrokes do that.  Take
a look at your manual.  To experiment with it a little you can create 
a .PIF file that calls COMMAND.COM.  Then call the .PIF in your new 
Program Item setup. 

Good luck.
