Kim-
Instead of
M:\winnt\profgen\outlookxp.prf
try
start M:\winnt\profgen\outlookxp.prf
It should launch the program separately from the batch, and allow the
batch to continue (or end, if it's the last line).
Hope this helps-

Subject: [THIN] Profile Generator for Office XP
Is anyone using the Office XP Profile Generator? PRF files are now
executables in Outlook XP. I need the PRF file to execute the first
time a
user logs in. I don't want it to execute anytime after because I don't
want
the PRF file to overwrite any customizations they may have made in
Outlook.
I've accomplished this in a script file. The script file does the
following:
Checks to see if the outlook.prf file exists in the user's profile
directory.
If it does not exist (then this is a new user), copy the outlook.prf
file to
the user's profile directory.
Execute the outlook.prf file, which launches Outlook.
If it does exist, then it is not a new user so it exits the script.
The following is my script file:
IF EXIST "%userprofile%\outlookxp.prf" goto end
copy M:\winnt\profgen\outlookxp.prf "%userprofile%\outlookxp.prf"
M:\winnt\profgen\outlookxp.prf
:end
The problem is that since I have this in a script, when it runs the line
M:\winnt\profgen\outlookxp.prf it launches outlook and the script thinks
it's still running. So cmd.exe is still running in the background. How
do
I get the script to end??
