Of course, the one line DOS command is much better. But I was talking about the piping etc, which seems to be alot more trouble than a single DOS command
I wanted to try the Run command, with the boolean you mentioned to make it synchronous, but I can't find the documentation for it. The Windows scripting guide I download won't work, every page shows as 'page not found' for some reason
Ive tried downloading it numerous times, there must be something wrong with the file on their end I guess... Could you tell me how to use the Run command synchronously?
In the mean time I'm looking at user timers. It doens't seem very complicated, I might get it this way too.
