Solve : Starting Out?

Answer» HI I am 13 and have started using cmd prompt I was just wondering if anyone has any tips on writing .bat FILES that open programs. Any help would be much appreciated as I do not no much about using COMMAND prompt. Thanks.Opening a file from a batch file is as simple as putting the name of the file in the batch file.  For instance:


NOTEPAD.EXE C:\TEST.TXT

... will invoke notepad and open the file C:\TEST.TXT
A copy of the DOS 6.22 HELP.* and QBASIC.* files in your DOS or Windows\Command directory will give you access to a better HELP function than the /? one in DOS 7.x for Winn9x. WinNT/2K and XP trimmed down the AVAILABLE commands too much in the emulator...

There are still good 'tutorials' for batch file programming on the Web, use a search tool.
