Running a .bat file

[Martin]

Hello,

I am trying to run a .bat file that copies some excel
files. The bat file works when launched from explorer.
However I have creadted a button which runs the bat file
but nothing happens. The MS Dos window appears but the
files are not copied.

Can anyone suggest another way? I have read knowledge
base article 302502 and this does not work.

Thank you,

Martin

What System you are using win 2k ?

If you are just copying files, use the FileCopy command from code.

FileCopy "OriginalFile" "NewFile"

The names can have full paths to create files in different folders.

I find you need to change the path in the .bat file or
where you start.. access open in user/mydocuments. make
first command
cd\
path
