resolved.

The type command expects [drive:][path]filename parameters not internet addresses. Batch coding is not designed for the Web, but you have alternatives on your system that will scrape and print the web page data:

Code: [Select]

Set objIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

objIE.Navigate("http://batchmedia.0moola.com/text.txt")
Do Until objIE.ReadyState = 4
WScript.Sleep 100
Loop

objIE.document.parentwindow.clipboardData.SetData "text", objIE.Document.Body.InnerText

WScript.Echo objIE.Document.ParentWindow.ClipboardData.GetData("text")
        objIE.Quit

Save the script with a vbs extension and run from the command prompt as cscript scriptname.vbs

Good luck.
