I don't seem to be able to access the DOS command prompt.
It has disappeared from all my programme listings. How can
I restore this???

The program is "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe"

Check that cmd.exe is acutally there. If not search for it. It
probably is there.

Just add a new shortcut to it in whatever menu you want.
 
Thanks, folks, for your replies. Yes, it was missing from
my Accessories folder but now, thanks to your help, I have
restored it.

Many thanks to all who replied.

Bear in mind this is not a DOS prompt. MS-DOS is dead. XP doesn't
use it. XP was not built on top of it like 9x/ME. What you have is a
command line interpreter that resembles a DOS box, runs some DOS
commands/programs, but is NOT DOS.
