Place a SHELL Window
Greetings !
I currently have this- -------------------------------------------- Open "C:\Runner.bat" For Output As #1 Print #1, "@ECHO off" Print #1, "Echo Please wait -" Print #1, "Echo This may take some time ...." Print #1, " [ other DOS commands ] ." Close Shell "C:\Runner.bat", vbNormalFocus MsgBox "Please wait " & vbCrLf & _ "until the DOS window closes." Kill "C:\Runner.bat" ---------------------------------------------- The reason for the MsgBox is to prevent VBA from KILLing the batch file until it has completed running. I would like the DOS window to cover the MsgBox. How can I specify whereabouts on the screen the DOS window will appear? RClay AT haswell DOT com |
