Running a bat file at windows CE boot

Hi All:

I want to start a bat file at windows ce startup. I tried to modify
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init" in the registry but did not work out. I suspect it
only accepts exe's. Then I have tried to make small exe application and
launch a bat file, but have not succeeded there either. My sourcode looks
like:

PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;
ZeroMemory(&pi, sizeof(pi));
if (CreateProcess(TEXT("\\windows\\cmd.exe"),TEXT("/C
\\windows\\IBMjvm.bat"), NULL, NULL, FALSE,CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE, NULL, NULL,
NULL, &pi))
{
CloseHandle(pi.hThread);
CloseHandle(pi.hProcess);
}
WaitForSingleObject(pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
Sleep(1000);
return 0;

This small exe application can launch IBMjvm.bat if I run it under telnet
console instead of runing at the boot time.

Please help,
