Re: Batch File Problem

Hello,

I have added a batch file to my Startup folder to execute whenever Windows
boots. The batch file works ok but it leaves a blank command (DOS)window
on the screen. The only thing in the command window is a flashing cursor.
I would like close this window using the batch file after the file
executes. I have tried adding an exit command to the batch file but it
doesn't seem to work. When the command window appears on the scrren, the
only way to remove it is to click the X in the upper right corner. I can't
enter any commands in the command window. Is there a way to close the
command window in the batch file?

Thanks,
Tony
