Hi All

I need to write a batch file to do the following:

I have to run an executable called crypt on a network drive e.g.

g:\network\test\crypt may/d

However the filename changes on a monthly basis so I want the user to be able to input the filename.

Eg. g:\network\test\crypt june/d

Once this is run the executable then asks for a password so the user then needs to input a password. The password is then verified so they need to input it again.

I am not a programmer in any shape or form so have no idea where to start on this! Any replies please assume that I have no idea what you're talking about and you won't be far off!!

Thanks for any assistance

For batchfiles you'll probably do better in forum204 or the appropriate OS forum
