Perhaps something like this?

D wCommand        s           1024
D wCmdString      s           1024    varying
 * Start PC Organizer if not started.
C                   eval      wCmdString = 'STRPCO PCTA(*NO)'
C                   callp(e)  QCmdExc(wCmdString:
C                              %len(%trim(wCmdString)) )

C                   eval      wCommand =
C                               'start http://www.martinvt.com'
 * Run the command from the screen.
C                   eval      wCmdString = 'strpccmd pccmd('''
C                               + %trim(wCommand)
C                               + ''') pause(*NO)'
C                   callp     QCmdExc(wCmdString:
C                              %len(%trim(wCmdString)) )
