Kwaddy,
This script runs test.bat and then does a backup using pkzip.
on the ss.run line the ,1,true at the end makes the script
wait until test.bat is over before running the backup
Enjoy Bob
Set ss = CreateObject("WScript.Shell"
ss.run "C:\folder\folder\test.bat",1,true
set ss = nothing
returncode=msgbox ("mount a 3.5 diskette for backup",65,"backup start"
if returncode=1 then
Set ss = CreateObject("WScript.Shell"
ss.run "COMMAND /C C:\util\pkzip.exe a:master77.zip y:\rds\rds77\master.txt ",1,TRUE
set ss = nothing
msgbox "backup is done please remove the diskette",64,"backup finished"
end if
