Can you be more specific? Are you looking for a batch enhancer utility
or just what does "extension feature" mean exactly in this context?

I suspect you mean:

setlocal ENABLEEXTENSIONS

or

CMD.EXE /E:ON

Ah ha. Most likely that is it.
See also: cmd /?
from the "Command Extensions are enabled by default." paragraph.

I'll bet both of you that that is not it. My first thought was that he
wanted to know how to access the extended functions that came out with DOS
5.0 (I think). There were calls you could make to interface directly with
the mouse, and do other neat assembler-level things.

Thanx for all your replies.
I appreciated it very much.
I think it might be the page I viewed mislead me so that I used the phrase
"DOS" Extension feature.
Sorry for my misusage.
thanx all.

And, if not, what *is* your problem, as we would like to help if we can.

Thanx all for your attention.
The page showed some examples when I recalled, it looks like(not sure)
following:
------------------------------------
If condition then
xxxxxxxx
End if
or----------------------------------
For condition
xxxxxxxx
Next
------------------------------------
It seemed to be different from "dos programing" of older version.
I might apply it to more complex variations.
It's what my requests originally.
Usually,I used vbscripts instead of "dos batch" if more conditions needed to
be considered.
Your responses did me a great favor and corrected many wrong concepts of
mine.
I'll try to find out the page and forward it on here if possible.
Thanx everyone responded.
