Just a quick question

What would be better to use these days with the different operating systems a batch file with the extension *.BAT or *.CMD?

.bat works with all microsoft operating systems.

.CMD works for all apart from one or two if im right in thinking

Thanks for the reply XxXGoD

Can anyone else confirm this please?

.cmd is a NT thing, so no Win9x
.bat works on everything

Thank you, I'll stick to the bat then 🙂
