Can you please let us know what version of KiXtart you're using and what it is you're attempting to do. That might help us to give you a better answer.

I need to map a drive and then run a exe from that mapped drive (file needs to be run with a working directory). run "net use f: \\banjo\del" GO F: cd "\PRG\FOX" run "deliver.exe"

ShaneEP ShaneEP MM club member Registered: 2002-11-29 Posts: 2127 Loc: Tulsa, OK	maybe something more like this will work better... Use F: "\\banjo\del" GO F: CD "PRG" CD "FOX" Run "deliver.exe" Or maybe...why cant you just do this? Use F: "\\banjo\del" Run "F:\PRG\FOX\deliver.exe"

When you RUN 'NET USE...' the next line is executed before the drive is mapped! _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.
