Greetings,
Can anyone tell me the difference between CMD files and BAT files on a
Windows 2003 Server domain? Basically, the BAT file runs correctly on all
client machines whether the BAT files are located on the network or locally.
As for the CMD files, on a few machines (XP) the files do not run correctly.
For example, if I call "del test.txt" from a CMD file, the del command gets
prepended with garbage and I get the following error: !@#%del is not
recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch
file. The same call works if it is typed inside a DOS window manually, but
running it from a BAT file does not work on all XP machines. Any
suggestions? Thanks.
