Keywords: Launch a Compiled WinBatch EXE from a DOS BAT File
A compiled WB EXE cannot be successfully run directly from a user's logon/login script either. Your other options to launch the WinBatch EXE at login include:
win WBEXEnam
load=C:\YOURDIR\WBEXENAM.EXEor
run=C:\YOURDIR\WBEXENAM.EXElines.
Err num 1114 (Batch DLL Init Error)Extra Info:
rem DOS BATCH FILE START COMPILEDWB.EXEor
START WINBATCH.EXE YOURSCRIPT.WBTIt's not START.EXE it's just START in a DOS batch file. START is an extension to the existing DOS batch commands in Windows 95, and is a NT Command prompt (like DIR and CD and COPY). If wanted to launch successive winbatch scripts from a DOS batch file, then you could use the DOS START command with the /W flag, which would wait for each job to complete before continuing onto the next.
I am running Windows 95 and I cannot get the START command to work from my DOS batch file! Any Suggestions?
Make sure that the DOS pif file has the appropriate settings. If you launch the explorer and find MS-DOS Prompt. Right Click on the file, select the Program Tab, click the Advanced button, Make sure "Prevent MS-DOS based programs from detecting Windows" is NOT checked!
