If that's the one from zd [PC mag] variously known as bat2com or bat2exe, it DOESN'T work.

I mean it 'compiles' the bat to an exe/com but the executable doesn't do what the bat did.
If yours works, I'd like to try it. Can you email it to me?

It's probably just a program that handles the loops, and calls system() for everything else, in which case the program would be larger (but not any faster) than the BAT file. I really can't see any benefit to this approach.

sorry i made a typo in the first message "bat.exe" but most of you seem to have realised that i meant "bat2exe" i also realised what you meant by it not working. The file compiles .bat files with no user input exept if run on the command line then only it will alow you to input a single command

So, does your bat2exe work or not?
I saw your msg elsewhere about 'hiding' a pw. Is this about that?
