Something about DOS...

Postby South » Tue Sep 19, 2006 6:59 pm

I need to have a batch file run in the background without the user having the ability to close it out, or view it running. Is there any way that I can configure the DOS prompt window to be invisible? :P

thanx!

Heh, I'd love to know the reason for that... ;D

I use them all the time at work but sorry, don't know the answer to your question.

I think you'd get a better response in one of the tech forums ;)
