Batch file help

Postby scottw on Wed Oct 17, 2007 2:20 pm

I need to launch the thin client executable thru a batch file that will open it on my second monitor.

I have a problem with "rogue" copies of the thin client staying open or showing in the task list after I have closed the thin client (xlobby2sd.exe). Sometimes I look at the task list and see 4 or 5 copies listed but not running. I thought I would create a batch file to launch the thin client but kill any open copies that currently exist first.
Something like this:
Code: Select all
tskill xlobby2sd
start C:\xlobby\client\xlobby2sd.exe


The problem I am having is getting this to open on my second monitor.
Right now I have a shortcut to the xlobby2sd.exe file on the desktop of my second monitor and double-clicking it opens it on that monitor. Using the batch file however I try will only open on the first monitor.

Is this not possible????

Thanks,
scottw
