 Yep-- that works. And I just made a shortcut on the desktop pointing to:

C:\WinNT\System32\Command.com

and that works as well.

Typing COMMAND at the RUN line seems to be trying to use the (Win98)
C:\Command.com rather than the WinNT version. (I suppose there's an environment
statement looking there first-- where would I change that?)

Now are there any reasons to prefer to use COMMAND.COM rather than CMD for a
command line interface?
