Thanks for the help. I am trying to use a config file now to save time and I
keep getting this error:
[exec] The command attribute is deprecated. Please use the executable
attribute and nested arg elements.
[exec] Loading configuration file C:\Documents and Settings\dude\My
Documents\Flex Builder 2\MyComponent\MyComponent-config.xml

Here is my MyComponent-config file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<flex-config xmlns="http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex-config";>
<compiler>
<source-path>
<path-element>.</path-element>
<path-element>C:\Documents and Settings\dude\My Documents\Flex

<include-classes>
<class>MyComponent</class>
</include-classes>
</flex-config>
and here is my batch file:
compc -load-config Countdown-config.xml
