When I shutdown W2k, is it possible to get it to run a batch file just
before the shutdown begins ? Thanks.
 
Try adding it through the Group policy editor
%systemroot%\system32\gpedit.msc
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Scripts\Shutdown

Thesr is available a "shutdown.exe" program that you could put in your
batch file. Then put the batch file into a desktop icon labeled
"Shutdown" and educate your users.
 
The user is myself. Workable solution. Thanks.
