Me again...
Working with 100s of Windows 98 and 100s of Windows XP operating systems
I have recently (today) tested using XSET to color my .BATs output.
I Set up the code so I can run one line while doing individual OSs.
So if I am running 98 then %X1% = XSET and when XP %X1% = CALL XSET32
Here is the problem, with Windows 98, XSET works as advertised, when
I run XSET/COLOR RED /PROMPT "SHOW SOME COMMENT" it works great but
with CALL XSET32/COLOR RED /PROMPT "SHOW SOME COMMENT" after showing
the comment, the .BATCH dies. No errors, no warnings nothing only
back to the DOS prompt
I have tried compiled with ExeSCRIPT and Quick File Batch Compiler as
well as standard .BAT running, all give the same problem. I tried
several PCs and they all run the same way, only does the first line
of CALL XSET32 and then dumps to DOS.
I tried a simple .BAT file
*snip*
CALL XSET32/COLOR RED /PROMPT "THIS IS LINE ONE"
CALL XSET32/COLOR WHITE /PROMPT "THIS IS LINE TWO"
CALL XSET32/COLOR CYAN /PROMPT "THIS IS LINE THREE"
*snip*
It only runs line 1 then dumps to DOS.
Any clues would be greatly appreciated
Thanks again
