Hi, Problem: I want to have a litle program/batchfile to run my other batch files with a easy/stupid interface. something like this: 1. start batch file 1 2. start batch file 2 3. start batch file 3 ______ |start button/pressing enter| Thanks Ocapity

Which operating system are you running on? The batch script varies from system to system.

Here's one that should keep running until you "quit" it. If you only want it to run one program and then exit, don't use CALL. You must have CHOICE.COM for this to work. You can download it here if your version of Windows doesn't have it: http://www.geko.ch/batch/CHOICE.COM This could be optimized more, but I tried to make it easy to understand. You must use your own batch file names. @ECHO OFF :START CLS echo. echo. echo Press a key (Q to quit): echo. echo (1) Batchfile 1 echo (2) Batchfile 2 echo (3) Batchfile 3 CHOICE /c:123q /n if errorlevel 4 goto END if errorlevel 3 goto B3 if errorlevel 2 goto B2 goto B1 :B1 CALL B1.bat goto START :B2 CALL B2.bat goto START :B3 CALL B3.bat goto START :END CLS

Systems are XP, 2000 and NT4. We are gamers and not all are computer wizards. A co-worker makes batchfiles to start our game, it is just for the "nono's" to start there game like it should (with the right commando's). I tryed in Visual Studio but did not find a commando to run external programs/batch. In VBS I can't do a propper menu structure. I know I ain't a script wizard my self but I like to lurn. thanks anyways Ocapity

This is what I have in VBS: Dim startvalve Dim WshShell Set WShShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") startvalve = InputBox ("Type the number of the gametype you wan to start 1: Valve standalone. 2: Valve DS 3: CS bots 4: CS DS", "-=CGS=-") WShshell.run startvalve & ".bat", , TRUE But if you want to change any text it takes allot of time to rearange the text.
