subst command fails in .bat file (used to work)

[Guest]

Greetings Al

I can't work out why my one-line batch file "subst k: c:\[etc]" fails as of recently. I didn't notice when it stopped working
Ideas anyone

Cheers, Ali

What's the message? That will tell you.

David - no message at all. The dos screen pops up briefly as always, but no virtual drive is present - that I can see.

Type it in a command prompt and you'll see the message. Type cmd in Start Run to get a command prompt.
