Repetative Processes

[nbowles]

I have an XP system that I use to update equiptment in my lab. The updates are .exe files that launch a java window requesting some information, IP address, Username, and Password. Since I have about 19 updates to do, I would like to try and automate this process. I'm new to Windows and Scripting but I'm am quite sure it can be done. Is there an easy way to do this with software that might be built into Windows?

Thanks,

Newbie

Are there any "switches" applicable to this exe which may allow you to input this known information?

If you launch the exe from a Command Prompt by typing XXXX.exe /? you would soon find out.

No, there are no switches associated with XXX.exe files. When executing the command XXX.exe /? it launches the java windows. Any other ideas?
