Is this a WinXP question or DOS question?

DOS doesn't have a start menu. and XP and 2k dont have DOS. if you mean the cruddy command prompt, why use it anyway?

dallas texas,

If you really mean "Command Prompt" in WinXP, please use the Windows XP Forum or Programming Forum rather than DOS Forum, as the rule of this forum says. Below is the *quotation* from the warning messages of this forum:

"DO NOT post questions related to NT Batch scripting on this forum. Use the Programming forum.

Use the Windows NT, 2000 or XP forum for questions regarding the Windows NT, 2000 or XP "DOS" command prompt."

For more information about the "Command Prompt" (Win32 Console) in WinNT/2K/XP, you may read this page:
