_Chris_ 0 Posted September 6, 2006 When i run a dos command (it runs an exe but with parameters) my script pauses until the program executed by the command is closed. HELP!!! I need it to run the command and then carry on. It runs a program that sits in the system tray. I also need a way of closing this without using processclose if possible as i think it runs multiple proceses Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Chris_ 0 Posted September 6, 2006 yeah i guessed that because batch files do the same. How do i go about using the run command with perameters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GaryFrost 13 Posted September 6, 2006 yeah i guessed that because batch files do the same.How do i go about using the run command with perameters?just use the same command you used with _RunDos only use Run.Look up Run in the Help, it's under Process Management Hide GaryFrost's signature Hide all signatures SciTE for AutoItDirections for Submitting Standard UDFs Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.
