We have an Oracle Developer Application which executes one batch
(.bat) file for printing issues. For this pourpose we use
HOST('printer.bat') Developer Command.

The Developer Application has to wait until the batch file finish its
execution.

When we execute the application in Windows 98 everything works fine,
that is, HOST command create a subprocess which is executed while the
Developer App remains waiting its ending.

The problem appears when we execute The Developer App in Windows XP.
The HOST command create a subprocess which is executed while the
Developer App continues the execution (without waiting the batch
ending) and giving therefore an unexpected behaviour.

Please help!

Thanks in advance and best regards.
