batch job
I am trying to create a batch job on xp pro but I can't get the extension to work (.bat) as an example. Is it possible to run batch jobs on XP Pro? If so, what do I need to do to get it to work please?
TIA |

Yes, and .BAT files are the way to do it. What commands are you using?

Try saving it as a .cmd file instead of .bat. It's not going to work unless iexplore.exe is in the path.
