Looks to me like when you CD to "\Documents and Settings" you want to have quotes around the path, otherwise I don't think the CD will work. Other than that, I would suspect that it's calling the bat okay. You might want to have cfexecute save the output from the command to a file while you're testing it. That way any errors will show up in the file it creates. I don't remember offhand what the name of the attribute for the output file path is.
