I want to make a program item for my favorite DOS shell so I can double click it instead of using the DOS prompt and then running the shell. The problem is the shell is sort of a TSR and when I double click it, it starts to come up, then I get the box saying 'your pop up program is now ready....' which interferes with the loading of my shell since the TSR part is loaded then Windows intercepts it before it can load the rest. I've tried various things like nesting it a couple batch files deap or running a little program first that really does nothing, and even trying to hide it by running a second COMMAND.COM. Nothing works, Windows always manages to see what's going on and intercept. Is there anyway I can make Windows mind its own business and keep it's paws off of my DOS shell? Thanks, Charles

What about running it via a batch file and in the batch file,
add the line "pause" after the line that execute your TSR ?
Let me know if that works ?
