Hello people,



I would like to make windows open some specific programs with one click.

For instance I would like winamp and skype to start with one click instead
of

clicking each of their icons.

I first tried to create a batch file like

______

start C:\CEDT\CTAZWIN.EXE

start C:\xxx\xxx.EXE

exit

_________



This works but for some programs it does not work for some reason I dont
know.

Is there any other way to achieve to what I would like?

The "Start" command works for all programs. Unfortunately
you chose not to give us an example that does not work, hence
we cannot tell you why that one failed to work.

The full syntax for the Start command goes like this. Don't forget
to include the double quotes!

start /b "Name of Program" "C:\CEDT\CTAZWIN.EXE"


.
