With a million and 1 sites in v9 there is no luxury to open into a site of choice as in v10 at start up so I have .bat files lining through to the various sites

cd c:\program files\actinic v9
catalog.exe /s "1 barrels"
exit


This launches the cmd dos window and the various sites launch fine. The "exit" command releases Actinic so when Actinic is closed it can be re-opened. Peachy.

I have been trying to find a way to close the cmd dos window but to no avail. It will close manually but being the sad case I am would like it to close automatically. Any ideas anyone?

Windows XP Pro.

Jont,

Try
start "" "C:\Program Files\Actinic v9\Catalog.exe" /s "Site1"


NOTE the empty "" in between start and the Path..
