Hi.
I'm very green at coding so please forgive my learning process.
Can someone please give me some tips on writing a code to run a .bat file?

Cheers

Thanks for the help. I got it to run the .bat file but is there a way to stop the .bat file DOS window from popping up? Is there a way to run it in the background or hidden?

Cheers
