Wasup, Thanks for the offer, but as long as this works for you and you learn from it, I'm happy. I also remember I was where you are, a long time ago and there were some that helped and other that didn't (or were rude). I'm just returning the favour in helping you - that's what the Internet community is all about. Maybe once you've learned more you will help someone else. That's full circle.
Did the script do what you want?

I know to you this seemed like a simple task and I might could have possibly figured it out on my own. Sometimes though I am unclear on things and I am not a script king, Im sorry for that. I was hung up on :HighImportance exit 0 and adding %FILE% to the cmd script I appreciate all of your time and work and want to give you some compinsation for your time. Do you have paypal?
