Solve : bat file to run file in my network places?

Answer»

Hi everyone.

Well i have this file in my network places which i run to connect to the internet. Now i don't see an extension on it so don't know how to make a bat file point to it. How do i write a bat file to run that file so i can connect to the internet?

I have windows xp pro service pack 2. Thank you in advance for the help.Open My Computer==>Tools==>Folder Options==>View tab.

Unclick "Hide Extensions For Known File Types"

Curious: My Network Places is a SPECIAL Windows Folder. Why is your program in there and how do you access the path information in your batch file?

8-)lol thank you for the reply but i know that already. I tried that before i posted but it doesnt give me a extension. All your connections are in my network places, lan, internet etc etc. Now that icon to access the NET, i would like to write a bat file accessing that file. lets call it connecttointernet.

Its a icon above lan etc that is in network places. It has no extension that i can see, and i created a shortcut to it and that doesnt have an extension either.

From your description, I suspect your TALKING about the "Network Connections" folder not My Network Places.

The Network Connections icons are not executable but rather hold the configuration for each type of connection. It is this information that programs accessing the telecommunciation features of your PC use to make their connections to the outside world or to other devices.

If you want to access a device/internet you generally start software which will be configured to use a specific connection. (Ex: IE can be configured to use a Dialup, a LAN or wireless connection). It is this software your batch file would contain a pointer to, not the connection it might use.

I'm so very confused what you're trying to do. :-?
