SPFPC -3.J SPFCMDS Set up

Not sure if this place is the right place but it's all I've got :-(

I'm trying to set up a command in SPFPC so that when I type SQL, it will
invoke SQL-server 2000's isqlw.exe
Not I have it working OK. However, it's in foreground and I'd like it in
background so I can run other apps.
My command line is
SELECT PGM("C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\isqlw.exe")

I've done this before and got it working (a couple of years ago on another
PC), and I can't seem to think how to do it now.

Any help would be appreciated.

SELECT PGM("COMMAND /C C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\Binn\isqlw.exe")

?

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.

Nope. However, checking some documentation I had at home, I found this,
which works

SELECT BACKPGM("C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\Binn\isqlw.exe")

I'm sticking this in here so I can search through Google later on if I need
to do this again
:-)

Cheers
