Display RetVal shell ftp progress/results

I execute a command:

RetVal=Shell("ftp -i -n -s:c:\myexe\ftp_process", 1)

The ftp_process file contains my login and send file commands.

The MSDOS window pops up with the ftp results and goes away, but I would like to see these in a window that I can "OK" or something before it goes away.  Is there anyway to do this?  I'm using a VB macro in an Excel 97 ap.

The shell command calls a file called "conagent.exe" under windows\system folder, if you double click it, it will flash then disappear, there is no way to make it stay there.
