[Dxbase] does MMD work this way with you?

I must have the bridge, MMD.exe running in order to have MMTTY transfer the callsign to 
DXBase.

It doesn't seem to matter which I start first,MMD or MMTTY.

Is this what you guys see?

I created a shortcut for MMD.exe by adding MMD.exe to a Programs item and then going to 
Tools>Shortcuts and creating a Ctrl+T for that Programs item.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a way for the Programs menu item to start two .exe 
files.
I tried adding the pipe character between the paths for the two programs like you can do 
in a dos box or bat file but that only starts the first program.
Created a .bat file to start both programs but that left a big dos window open.
I'm working on that...
What I think I need, is a script, that would start mmd.exe and then mmtty.exe and then 
close both programs when mmtty was closed.
I'm working on that....
suggest you don't hold your breath though.

But I wanted to see if MMD bridge worked the same way for you as it did for me.
