i would like to create a simple menu in a batch file, but the problem is that when i execute it i get a fatal error then it terminates.. does anyone knoe how to make a menu in batch that is compatible with xp? my current s/cis:

Quote:

@echo off cls echo menu echo. echo 1 - c1 echo 2 - c2 echo 3 - 23 echo. /c 321>nul if errorlevel 3 goto o3 if errorlevel 2 goto o2 if errolevle 1 goto o3 :o3 shutdown -s -t 00 :o2 format E: :o3 echo !!-hello world-!!

the other thing is that i need a way to logon to shares. anyone know of a command to do this?

you can also look into WSH... not as easy as kixtart (my favorite), but it is built in

that was the first artical i went to to figure otu the menu. i coded it and windows printed an error. so i tryed d/l the batch he posted and windows printed another error. logon to shares: i have an nslu2 and in order to gain access to it i have to double click on its icon in my computer then enter me\y username/password then i have to exit out of the window and start wmp then clicko on my remote playlist. i would liek kto automat this prosses by doign somehing like:

Quote:

@echo off <**line to login to share here**> <**path to playlist here (on local hdd)**> :exit

that way i can put the bat file in my /startmenu/startup folder nad have my share loged into and wmp started when i power up..

BTW.... I have my PC autologon, but then I put a shortcut into my startup folder to launch my PW protected screensaver.

So the computer starts up , logs on, runs all my startup apps, but is still "locked" until I get around to actually working on it.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
