probably a path issue. When witango starts it up, it probably starts it up with a different starting directory. you might try having the first line of your batch file being a "cd" that changes to the directory where the batch file is ie "cd c:\mydirectory\xcopyfolder\" On 1/26/07, Robert Shuber

Witango-Talk: calling xcopy

2007-01-26 Thread Robert Shubert
Does anybody no why xcopy wouldn't work properly in a batch file when it's called by Witango as an external? The batch file functions as expected if I double-click it, but when Witango 5.5 calls it, the xcopy function is just glanced over. This is on Windows server 2003. Thanks, Robert ___
