How about adding the program to a group in the Program Manager?
  File --> New --> Program Group   //  create a new group (e.g., 'My Apps')
  File --> New --> Program Item    //  create a new item (e.g., 'Winword 2.0')
  File --> New --> Program Item    //  create another item (e.g., 'WinGIF')
     ...
  etc.

Then you can run the program off of the Program Manager (now and
in the future).  If you don't want something permanent (e.g.,
'SETUP.EXE'), select the File --> Run option.
