I have a MS-DOS Batch File that I need to run FoxPro 2.6 for Windows. The command is shown below:

START /w foxprow.exe program.prg >> logfile.log

It executes FOXPRO for WINDOWS Version 2.6 but it needs to open a new window for the foxprow.exe since it is a window application. Is there a way to have the script run to allow a window to open up for FOXPRO eventhough it is a MS-DOS script?

This MS-DOS batch is running on a NT Server.
 
I guess I don't understand what you are asking. It looks to me like it is doing what you want(?).

I forgot to mention that I'm trying to run it via the WINAT scheduler on the NT Server. It does not run the START command...
