Solve : msg * 'msg'?

1.	Solve : msg * 'msg'?
Answer» The command msg * 'the message' opens a pop up that SAYS 'the message' but when you WRITE that in notepad, save it as a bat file and OPEN it it won't work. There HAPPENS somthing verry strange it repeats itself. But doesn't open a pop up WINDOW. Can someone explain to me why? and what I'm doing wrong? btw can you send msg from dos to other people that arent in a lan with you grtz JakobI was unable to re-create your problem. When I put : msg * 'The message' into a batch file it did indeed pop up a message. I used the Win Xp cmd window for my test. What version of Windows and/or DOS are you using?
