Hi! I am trying to create a simple batch file to change a drive mapping, then run a program from the new drive - without a prompt! My attempt: net use S: \\linux2\sage S:\sage.exe <yesfile (Where yesfile is a textfile containing 'Yes Carriage return') However, I get the message net use S: \\linux2\sage S: is currently \\LINUX1\SAGE. The local device name S: is already in use. Do you want to continue? (Y/N) [N]: How can I get this batch file to run Sage on the new drive without human intervention? (S: will always already be mapped) Very many thanks in advance Jkgla

You can use the NET DELETE command to delete the s drive mapping before remapping it.

"NET DELETE" is not a valid command in a Win98 DOS box. But you can try this: echo y|net use S: \\linux2\sage>nul

Sorry posted the info wrong, the command you can try is net use s: /delete This string will delete the s: drive mapping
