using STRPCCMD

We are using STRPCCMD (PC Command) to open a excel file in the Client.
When i am in the Web-Screen and i execute a PC Command the Server is not able to process the incoming data.
I get a screen with a long field filled with asterisk (*).
Is it possible to Display the incoming Data like:
"open \\path/file.abc"
I know it is not possible to process the command, but i think it would be useful to see it.
