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.
You cannot . . .
1. Opening and closing windows is a Windows function.
Command Line commands can open and close a Window.
Have a look at the /B switch for the "Start" command.
2. BATch files execute DOS functions in a DOS window.
There is no DOS under Windows and there are no DOS
functions. Perhaps you mean "GUI" applications and
Command Line commands? DOS is an obsolete operating
system. Windows emulates certain components of DOS
but a Command Prompt is definitely not DOS, although
even Microsoft engineers sometimes slip and call it DOS.
3. Windows functions cannot be executed in a DOS
environment.
Not true. You can invoke any command or any GUI
application from a Command Line environment.
