As Jonathan Kamens pointed out, I needed to move the single quote inside of
the file to be read in the following line of INCORRECT "code":

awk '$0 !~ /Command:*/ { print $0 >"d:foo" } "d:sourcefile"'
                       ( the   '      ( the   '  should be after   >"d:foo" }'

     ( the   '  should be after   >"d:foo" }'   in the above code.

Thanx to all who helped me with this.

No more net bandwidth need be expended on this problem. Problem solved.
