Windows command line

[MisterX]

Fred, Ken,

That's a good one I didn't know!

Although I've resorted to easier to edit ini or cfg text files with the
instructions or paramenters. So when you run your stack as a service
application or W2K schedule, you dont need to rely on a command line call
and you can change it in between runs if scheduled for example. 

Just a suggestion.
