Add to the top of the bat file @Echo Off
This will stop commands being displayed.. Then when you want to output some text use Echo again e.g. @Echo off C:\programs\runme.exe filename.txt 45 Echo This text appears on screen HTH -----Original Message----- From: Bushy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 13:03 To: CF-Talk Subject: Stripping lines from output Hi, I'm creating a batch file and then executing it via <cfexecute.
