have you checked contests of batch file (right click and select edit option)? r u sure nothing happens - will depend on contents of batch file normally.

Open a DOS window, and run the file in that. You will be able to see any error messages. Peter

Post the batch file, but are you sure it is not running properly, and just closing the window very quickly? Peter
