[Quoted] Running SQL*Plus from forms via "start" command

Oracle forms 6.0.8.10.3 windows 2000, RDBMS 7.3.4.10.3(UNIX server).

I had used the following code to run SQL*Plus on windows NT and it had worked but now with windows 2000, it does not work. Nothing happens.

It still works for the users that have windows NT.

:global.var := 'start /MAX \\ntapps\oracle6i\orant\bin\plus80w.exe '||
:global.username||'/'||:global.password||'_at_'||:global.instance||
' _at_\\ntapps\oracle6i\scripts\x.sql'; host(:global.var);

How can I make this code work in Oracle forms on windows 2000 ?

Thanks.
