  Ok, 
  I got some responses and I should explain better what I am trying to do. 
  I would like to make a script to do the following

  1. Run a program (deletes a old antivirus software)
  2. restart the computer
  3. Logon the network so the user does not have to
  4. Del some directories


  Can anyone help me.

    there are ways you could do it-this is one: you'll need 2 batch files

    1. create a batch file called start.bat and put it in the startup folder of 
the server

    2 start this file with the command "if exist" command to see if a file say 
called run.dat exists in the windows directory 

    3. if the file exists then the rest of the batch file will run-if it 
doesn't exist then it wont

    4 now you need to add the shutdown command to the end of the first batch 
file and also add a command to create a file called "c:\windows\run.dat" i.e. 
"dir > c:\windows\run.dat" this will trigger the second batch file when you 
restart.

    5. last thing is to make sure that at the end of the startup bacth file to 
delete the file or it will remain there and cause it to run every time.

    hope this makes some sense for ya

      Group, 

       I would like to write a batch file to make a computer reboot and then 
finish the batch after it has rebooted. 
      Does anyone have some ideas?

      Scott
