Remember, there is no such thing as a small job on a PC! <s>
Seriously, there is the RUN command but other then that your looking at a project! Yes you can use the API but now your talking about writing messages to the Windows/App messaging loop. I don't know of any 'easy' way -- wish I did, I would use it myself!
If you find something please let me know.
