The EXE name isn't following the 8.3 rule. While technically
COMMAND.COMdoes support long file names to some degree, the back and
forth between 16
bit and 32 bit layer isn't very stable in my experience.

We're are using a batch file and execute it with CMD.EXE /C whatever.BAT
(START.EXE on Windows 9x). Over the past decade that has been the most
reliable solution for us in FPD.

In FPW I'd probably use RegFn and CallFn to call CreateProcess directly.
Rick Strahl had great articles on using 32-bit API functions from FPW 2.x,
even though he might not recall writing those <g>
