cron disables dialog window

I have a script that runs and kicks off a windows program that opens a
dialog where it automatically enters the necessary data and submits the
result. It works beautifully if I run it through a cygwin shell, but not
when executed as a cron job.  When executed as a cron job, the dialog window
never appears. I have tried using cygstart and bash –l –c, but neither was
effective. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Kevin
