Look at command line parameter for the PC program.  Some have it where they
run and terminate without user intervention.  The problem is with the PC
applications not ending.

One question about this; as I see other "neat" things I could do in a
project I am working on, being I have limited tools;  this works here, but,
how would you for example: run mplayer2, let it play the wav file out, then
return back to the CA session.  I have already gotten an ILE to use the
callp to do this, however; the mplayer2 just hangs - if I could return
control back to the CA session, I see some interesting potential here -
power point slide shows, movie clips, or pictures associated with say a part
number; a sneaky way to get graphics or other "PC" style objects on a 5250
emulation when you cannot get VRPG, or some other advanced client server
tools and have to stay within a small room, no windows, just a candle for
light, heat, and friendship ;)

Any thoughts?

     STRPCO PCTA(*NO).
     STRPCCMD PCCMD('C:\WINDOWS\CALC.EXE') PAUSE(*NO)

     If the Windows Calculator has been opened in your PC, and you can
     continue working in your AS/400 normally, then your emulation
     correctly supports the functions of CAO. If on the other hand, the
     calculator does not open, or the 400 session has been disconnected or
     the 400 session won't allow you to enter commands, then that means
     that your emulation does not support the functions of CAO.

     You can use any executable program in lieu of C:\WINDOWS\CALC.EXE

     Enjoy
