Hi Bill thanks for the reply - No the batch file doesn't open any new batch files - they both run processing the same lines as the other side by side Many thanks Darren ------------------ T: 0424 696 433 -----Original Message----- From: Bill Patten [mailto:bill_Patten at earthlink.net] Sent: Monday, 8 January 2007 8:47 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] A2003:Shell opens 2 DOS windows hi Daren, It's Sunday and not many appear to be working today so I'll take a SWAG. Is it possible that the Shell command is opening a dos window to open the batch file, then the batch file is opening a dos widow to do it's thing.???

The syntax is valid - everything is cool - but 2 of them open up and then start trying to process the lines in the batch file And no. There is not some second call buried elsewhere in the code Many thanks Have a great day Darren -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
