Wrong exit value from external program

I'm trying to read exit value from external program but it's always 0.

String command = ("cmd  /c start /wait "+ Script[0]);                          
Process exec = runtime.exec(command);                   
int waitFor = exec.waitFor();
System.out.println(exec.exitValue);     //always 0   
System.out.println(waitFor); //always 0

Program is used for programming modules and I need to know if there were any error's.

How to get the application exit value?

The program you're actually running is the cmd program, not whatever you're running under that.

See How do I get the application exit code from a Windows command line? for how to extract the underlying exit code.
