I need to use a long command in dos but after i type a portion of the command out i can type anymore. People have told me i can make a "Batch" file using my long command and then run this "Batch" file.
How would i go about doing this?? Or is there annother way i could use this long command in dos.
Thnx

I'll answer anyway :p

make a blank file called filename.bat, and put your commands in it. Then just run that .bat file and it will execute all of the commands in it from top to bottom.

yes, the batch file is the way to go.

someone gives you a suggestion that isn't going to do any damage if you try it, then try it!

It should work.
