We have found when an attempt to run a file named either ftpstart.bat or ftpstart.cmd is made:
A) from Start | Run B) from LAUNCH within R:Base and that file is not on the defined path and path/filename is not used as part of the command: Then MSIE is launched in ftp mode. In fact I just tested this with a file named ftphack.xxx and Win 2K launched MSIE in ftp mode looking for the address ftp//ftphack.xxx/. I replicated this on a Win ME machine since they had so far been left out of the discussion. Looks like a Windows wierdness to me. This has been found to be true in W98, W98SE, WME, W2K, and WXP. As RBTI originally said: "It is a Microsoft problem." What is interesting is that cmd.exe and command.com returned the following error message when tested with a the non-existant ftpstart.cmd: "'ftpstart.cmd' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." --------------------------------------- At 08:56 PM 5/23/2002 -0500, you wrote: >Ben, > >I agree on the pathing!
