.cmd file syntax

[Thadeous]

although it has been around for a long time, I am still not very familiar with NT .cmd file syntax. what I want to do is have a .cmd in my "Sent to" folder, but I want the file I am "sending" to be injected as the first part of the .cmd

I am kind of having problems wording this right, so if you have a question just ask.

Do you mean that if you are sending a file with the text

DIR

CLS

(etc.)

, that your .cmd file will run the those commands as if you were typing them at a command prompt? Or a, I completely misunderstanding you?

Have a look at this:

(for shell drive or directory)

and this:

for the send to folder

If you want the object you send to the .cmd to be an argument to it, you need, assumed your batch files is called "mycmd.cmd" set the entry to the shortcut as

"mycmd.cmd %1"
