Default shell command running very slow

Hi,


I have an Excelscript inwhich I start a shellcommand.

RetVal = Shell("C:\script\transfer.bat", 0)

The shell starts a DOS batch. On one PC (Windows XP, Office XP) the
execution of this DOS batch started from Excel is running very very slow.
Other Pc's with simialr operating systems don't have this problem.

When the user starts the DOS batch from the Explorer, the DOS batch works
normal.

Anyone any idea?

Thanks in advance.
