But when I try to do this, the system tells me the syntax of my call is wrong. I am sure my error is not in the call to the batch file itself, since I am able to call and execute a batch file that does not require parameters. Anyone out there using this shell who has figured out how to pass parameters to a batch file, please send me mail. I will post answers back to the net. Thank you. ///////// joe brady
