Running a .exe from within another .exe

I am developing in VFP 3.0 on a W3.1 platform.

I have 2 executables.

If I run each .exe separately from Program Manager, I get two separate "Tasks" in the Task List and I can alt-tab between the two at will.

If I run the second .exe from within the first .exe (using "do xyz.exe"), there is only one "Task" and exiting the second .exe also ends the first .exe because of the CLEAR EVENTS line.

I would like to start the second .exe from within the first and have it be a completely seperate app within Windows.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob
