 DH> Any suggestions....I all ears

you don't have a loop in that .bat file?


ie:

rem this is the bat file
cd\maximus
:loop
max -w -p5 -s38400
if errorlevel whatever goto end
goto loop
:end


something like that? the errorlevel line definitely needs modification and
possibly additional ones... in any case, its a very simple example... don't
the docs have a sample in them?
