L3P is a DOS program. You must run it by typing L 3 P Enter in a DOS window.
You should NOT put it into AUTOEXEC.BAT.
However, it it convenient to put the "set LDRAWDIR=(wherever ldraw is located)" there,
it saves you typing it in the DOS window before typing L 3 P.

If you still have problems, I can dig out some detailed explanations
I have mailed to several in the past.

And L3PAO can NOT use L3Lab.
