Thanks for your reply.
I see that you understood my suggestions and I see why they aren't appropriate for this specific situation.

I saw a post suggesting using the Window "START" command in a .bat file. There might be some way to use that to solve your problem. I don't know at the moment.

However now that the Monks know more about what you are doing, there is an increased likelihood of a simple solution, perhaps not a general solution, but a solution that will solve your specific problem.
