Batch files

[Guest]

Download a zip file that contained a batch file. I installed the file as I
always have in the past with no problems. I tried to run the batch file to
complete the installation of the file. When I double clicked the batch file
it just would flash quick and not execute. I have had no problem with batch
files in the past and some have been very large.
Any help appreciated

Do you think that everyone here is a freakin' mind reader???

That's pritty funny Grumpy.
hey Paul._
I am afraid you have to be more specific as to what kind of batch file you
are talking about. Not much help can be given to you if we dont even know the
name of the program you are trying to download or what kind of string your
are talking about.
Best luck next time.

The file is for train simulator a freeware engine. The only info I have
regarding the files is ( MS-DOS Batch file ).

Hi

Open the file in Notepad and copy the contents into your next post, we
may have better luck if we see the darn thing

The original zip is at www.train-sim.com (prr_rs11.zip)

This is the content of the batch file
copy ..\ta_NKP_AlcoRS11\ta_NKP_rs11.s .
copy ..\ta_NKP_AlcoRS11\ta_NKP_rs11.sd .
mkdir cabview
copy ..\ta_NKP_AlcoRS11\cabview\gp38.cvf cabview\.

Ok
So the batch file seems to want to move up a folder level, then create
a folder called ta_NKP_AlcoRS11 into which it copy's two files,
then create a sub-folder called cabview and copy another file ito
this.

Assuming the Sim program is on C: drive in a folder called trainsim
( C:\trainsim ) extract the zip files into this folder - allow it to
create a new sub-folder if needs be.

Open a DOS box - AKA Command Prompt - navigate to the location of the
batch file and run it from there.
