echo command

Comment:

For some reason the echo command doesn't work properly in my batch scripts. If I put @echo off or echo off (tried them both) as the first line of a batch script when I run it afterwards it still shows. It just refuses to run in the background... Can anyone help me with this??

It works fine in DOS - but you're running XP's DOS emulation. It should still work, but maybe try asking in the XP Forum Tech Support: "I need you to boot the computer." Customer: THUMP! Pause. "No, that didn't help."
