CHID: 6432Question
I am trying to make a batch file that opens several Word Perfect Documents at the same time, problem is when I call a document in the program, command passes to the called document and waits for a return, which occurs after shutting Word Perfect down, then the batch prog opens the second. How do I open several doc's without passing command so that all of the called documents open at once?
i.e.:
call doc01.frm
call doc02.frm
call doc03.frm
doesn't work
Answer
The call command is designed to open a file and wait until it completes, often this command is used to call other batch files. For your situation I suggest using the start command instead of the call command. For example.
start doc01.frm
start doc02.frm
start doc03.frm
