Ben : >> Has anyone else experienced this? I have a routine that writes a batch file and then zips out to execute it. The batch file runs pkunzip.exe and mt.exe. The problem is that both pkunzip and mt are corrupted after being run. The size of both is reduced. This is only true if the batch executes these two files in the same directory as the batch file and from within RBase. If they only reside on the path (not in the same directory) it's not a problem. <<
I never experienced that .... But I run several permanents BAT files (not writen from RBW) thru ZIP command.com /c BatFileName parameter list using PKZIP/UNZIP and I never had such problem .... Are you sure to use PKUNZIP parameter in the rigth order ? What happen if PKUNZIP is read only ? What happen if you run yout BAT file at the DOS prompt ? Use the verbose param. and pause DOS command to understand what happen ... What OS and RBW version are you using ? J.M. GRATIAS, Logimatique
