    well im talking about when you call the batch file, it shows the line, but when you just run it, it doesn't.

    do you want it to echo its own path?

      I honestly have always had issues with the "additional info" area. Have you tried unchecking that box and checking the "ghost applications" box?

      EDIT: I followed the link that BatchFileBasics sent to download the new version (v1.5). It rocks! I was using 1.4 until now. So the comments i made were regarding 1.4. Thank you BatchFileBasics!

      Another issue just came up that maybe someone here can answer. In the BAT file (before compiling) I have an "Echo Running %1", this works when the file is a BAT file called from another  BAT file, but as soon as I 'exe' it, the echo statement disappears. Anyone have an idea for a work around here?

      There are other controls for redirection:

      "Will interpret the `1>&2' as
      saying you want stdout to go to both the old stderr *and* the pipe,
      which in this case you don't." 


      Your bat to exe converter might have command line options for redirection?
      or
      the following workaround might survive the conversion process:

      echo Running %1  1>output.txt

      type output.txt

        WOOOHOOO that worked.
        The 1>output.txt  did it.

        I'M FREE...lol

        Thanks guys, just have the ICON to test next.

        V1.5 is definately better.

          I definitely agree too! I can add the "additional informations" area without ANY issues at all!
