.bat files

[sjunod]

I want to start a .bat file (#1) that will change directory (CD) then start another .bat file (#2).  then when that .bat file completes, start another .bat file (#3) from the first .bat file.  so:

cd c:\dir1\subdir1
StartBat1.bat
StartBat2.bat

both the 2nd and 3rd .bat files are located in the  c:\dir1\subdir1  folder

is this doable?

Code: [Select]

cd c:\dir1\subdir1
call Bat1.bat
call Bat2.bat

Using start the way you posted, would have both bat1 and bat2 running simultaneously. Using the call command, bat1 will finish before bat2 starts up.

Good luck.

yep, that did it.  thanks!
