Hey All,

I am having a problem with the last line of this .bat file...

After running thebat.exe, control is not passed back to the .bat file,
and I have to kill the cmd window. I have run it like shown and with CMD
/C in front of it with the same results.

Any thoughts on what might be happening?

,----- [ MAILbu.bat ]
| @echo off
| 
| ::Ok, lets shut TB down!
| "C:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe" /EXIT
| 
| ::We should wait for TB to exit...
| :: possibly find a programmatic way to check?
| :: or, if not, use sleep?
| pause
| 
| ::Now we dump the reg key for TB (keeping a backup if it exists)
| set BUfilename="\MAIL\TheBatRegBU.reg"
| copy %BUfilename% %BUfilename%.old /y
| regedit /e %BUfilename% HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\rit
| 
| ::Here is where we make a backup of the MAIL directory
| :: make the .rar filename YYMMDD.rar...
| "C:\Program Files\WinRAR\RAR.exe" a E:\MAILbu.rar E:\MAIL
| 
| "C:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe" /MINIMIZE

OK, I'm weird! But I'm saving up to become eccentric.
