close the ms-dos prompt box
Make this the last line of your batch file:
cls -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "W Budd" wrote in message ... I am backing selected files from one drive to another using dos xcopy in a batch file executee from the start- run selection. This works fine but leaves the ms-dos prompt box open on the desk top. If I include the text 'command /c' before the batch file name the box closes. This is what I want. Next I try to use the task scheduler to run the batch files, but if I include the 'command /c' before the batch file name the scheduled task will not run. This is very frustrating. I just want to execute the bat file using task scheduler and close the ms-dos prompt box. Any suggestions how to change the command line? Thanks - W Budd |
