I am new to scripting with Kixtart and I have not been able to figure out how to call a batch file from within a Kixtart script.

Also, I have not been able to figure out how to run a command from within a script that includes double "" within the command context. I wish to enter a command line which automates the uninstall of Norton AV 7, but the command has to include quotation marks in the command line. I have been successful running this independently in a batch file, but not from within the kixtart script. Can anyone assist me? Help!

check out the FAQ section.

There is one, all about the use of Run and Shell
and another on the use of quotes

And sever posts if you do a search for norton.
