run... command help please

[Lothar]

Hello
Does anyone know how to stop the command window from
closing down when executing run... from the start menu.
It´s wery annoying when some programs you try to run from
here flashes a black box on the screen and then dissapears.
Leaving you wondering what happened....
I know you can open a command prompt window to get rid of
this but I would prefer to using run.. since It is so
conviently placed on the menu...

Run CMD to open the command line window, then enter the
command you want.

Type exit to close the window.

cmd /k whatever

cmd /k type c:\boot.ini

If it's a dos program then changing the PIF can also help.
