Your problem is much more likely to be a totally local problem due to
a windows corruption then one just caused by the Bat.
Try producing that same error on a different machine and then you have
a better idea if its computer specific or not.
And then the real problem can still be windows, Eudora or the bat or
even another program.
If you had made an export of the registry before and after
the mess produced and then run a comparison between them (several
programs will do that) , then very likely with a bit of luck maybe a
very limited number of changes would be found, indicating what the
problem could be.
Registry problems cannot be easily be analysed long distance.
And the best person to find the essential facts is with the computer it
runs on, ie you.
This is not trying to tell you to fix it yourself.
But try finding whats changed and then you may get a useful answer.

No, thats why there are different products. You can choose.
Besides whats comfortable to one user may be totally uncomfortable for
others.
Accomodating products to the users can be fatal. I remember in the
80's this Chinese guy in Singapore who was from Shang Hai like a
certain Mr Wang and thus selected a Wang computer.
He wanted to run HIS style of chinese book keeping on it.
A year later he was out of business and everybody had a big headache
as it was just impossible.
If he had been willing to change some of his methods to those more
suitable for a computer....
I myself had one time this problem where they told me HOW to write the
program instead of what they wanted the end result to be.
The one time I ever did that as it ended up being a horrible thing in
the end where everything was totally ilogic. When they guy left who
pushed it through I dumped it as it was totally unsupportable.
Best regards,
tracer
