XPE how do you close a batch file that stays open?

In XPE how do you get the batch file command window that is staying open to close? When we are launching an application via a batch file the command window won't close. Anyone have an idea on how to accomplish this?

have you tried including the word exit at the end?

when you are calling the program from the batch file the batch file is waiting till the program has finished before going to the next line. Even if you put an exit it would not read the exit till the program completes. You need to call your program with the start command. For instance if you are calling winword.exe use "start winword.exe" without the quotes.

Thanks for the tips. I'll give the "start winword" a try.

start /b exefile.exe

Will sort it out, either at the end of your .cmd file or even put exit at the end just to make sure!

Cheers,
Carl.
