Pete,
I don't know if this will help but it's worth trying. We have had a problem like this with win2K and PKZIP. We had to put the "&" and the the resulting commands inside quotes to get it to work. Examp.. pkzip "-&F" somefile.zip c:\*.dbf.
I am not sure if by changing your line of code to:
run /N1 "&t_case"
It's the only thing I can think of trying.
HTH
