RE: OT: Batch File Help



Add the word "Start" in front of each line.
 
For example:
 
Start iexplore.exe /K
 
Hope this helps,

Hi Guys,

 

 

            I'm trying to run 6 copies of IE in kiosk mode on windows XP pro. I have a cmd line which open IE in kiosk mode and then resizes and moves the window. It then loads the page I want, Streaming Video.

 

            I need to then run 5 more which position then selves to form a grid. This I have done again with a cmd line for each.

 

I then put the 6 lines into a .bat file, which I had hoped to run and all the windows would open. However what happens is the first one runs, but it retains control of the bat file. The next window will only open if I close the first.

 

Is there a way that I can call a batch file and the release control so I can run the next one. For those that know Linux, something like the -&

 

TIA

 

Paul
