#1 open windows help & support and look for ‘command’ or ‘command reference’. I don’t remember if you can do a message box from a batch file, but there is a pause command that waits for a keystroke. As an alternative look into using scripting such as vbscript or powershell scripts.
#2 When you set up your task there is a place to provide logon credentials that the task will run under. Most likely you haven’t set the proper logon for the task to run without a user logging on the computer.
Thank you for the response, however i have all issues as is. I have already tried all the help. Any specific commands to get the above psuedocode would be great. By the way i am sorry if could not convey clearly I am not after making a message box from batch file. I want a commands to handle a message box with Ok button by pressing entering “Enter” command. As mentioned in the Psuedocode.
Pause until dialog box, if Dialog box send “enter” command and log the activity by comparing the date stamp and proceed with further instructions. Please can someone help me.
