The result was as you said a flash of the DOS window I then renamed Test.bat to ftpstart.bat at the R> and then ran it and it displayed the dir of my C drive. Hope this is helpfull I'm running R:Base 2000 V 6.5++ (1.851 X RT03) Rich Starkey -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dan Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 4:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Launch command I thought this would be solved just by sending it off to RDCC. They claim it is not a bug, but rather microsofts problem. Would anyone else please try this simple test, and tell me if you find the same thing that I do. 1. Create a simple test.bat file, just one command in it. DIR 2. then at the Rprompt type Launch test.bat You should see the dos directory flash by and be gone. This is correct, and Launch worked great. 3. Now rename that same file to FTPSTART.BAT 4 then at the R> type Launch Ftpstart.bat Please tell me if it did or didn't work. I believe the problem is with the filename itself.
