In that case, use CMD.EXE when working on NT/2000 OS.
As I mentioned in my earlier post, you can automate
the entire process using (ENVVAL('ComSpec')).
Simple Example:
SET VAR vShell TEXT = (ENVVAL('ComSpec'))
IF vShell CONTAINS 'WinNT' THEN
ZIP CMD.EXE /C COPY FileName.TXT LPT1:
ELSE
ZIP COMMAND.COM /C COPY FileName.TXT LPT1:
ENDIF
-- Use CMD.EXE for Win NT, Win 2000 and Win XP.
-- Use COMMAND.COM for Win 95, Win 98 and Win Me.
Hope that helps!
