My tests were in sharp contrast to this last statement. 7-Zip continued to run the backup from the command line WHILE TB was open, and did NOT wait until TB closed.

It simply didn't work like you suggested because 7-Zip ran while TB was still open. -- Best Regards, Greg Strong Using The Bat! v2.11 Beta/5 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 The only sure things in life are death and taxes. ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
