Something I've run into before is location of the TEMP directory. I had a C:\tmp but was pointed to C:\TEMP in the environment variables. This caused a problem with executing DOS commands from within Universe. Long time ago, though.

I've actually moved the .bat file to the C:\ root directory and tested it there as well with the same results. The test have been: Executing .bat from Windows Explorer - Works OK. Triggering DOS and typing in the batch command manually - fails Placing the batch file in a variable and using EXECUTE to trigger it - fails This is really weird.... -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Richard Lewis Sent: Tuesday, November 02, 2010 3:57 PM To: U2 Users List Subject: Re: [U2] UniVerse DOS Command - Batch File Error Is the path set correctly, so that the application can be seen from the cmd or EXECUTEd environment?
