The SessOpr Host Run command can only be ran while in a session. This
is ran on the host computer. This command works equally well on any
system, DOS, Windows 95/98, Windows NT, that pcANYWHERE works under.

If you want a command to run locally, without being in a session, use
the Run script command instead.

To help you learn how to program a script to use this command, I
recommend the following excellent sample script:

Sample script SAMPLE.SCR
ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/products/pcanywhere/pcanywhere32/updates/sample.scr

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. Thanks.
