Jeffrey,
Run Command Line works, but the %SYSDIR% you are using is wrong.
The attached displays a messge box showing what %SYS32DIR%,
%SYSDIR%, and %WINDIR% map to. %SYSDIR% that you're using maps to
c:\windows\system, not system32.
Then my script runs %WINDIR%\system32\cmd.exe ... which works.
HTH
