Hi netters,
	I've noticed that Word for Windows and Excel are both able to force
Windows to start up if they are run from the DOS prompt. I was wondering
if anyone knows how I could force my own program to do this?

Please reply to me by e-mail as it reaches me three weeks more quickly than
this newgroup does (seriously). I will summarize to the net.

	Thanks,
	Philip.
