| 219582 | 2004-03-02 10:16:00 | Hi All, I am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I am wondering if i can open webpages using a simple batch file. I know i can open one by using the run cmd in windows. Think i must be missing something, a switch etc in the batch files i have tried? I just typed the URL into the batch file and that's it. Am searching Windows Help for more info. Where are all you scripting guru's? Thanks in advance... Darcy. |

| 219585 | 2004-03-02 19:15:00 | I ve been thinking about this and here may have better solution create a new shortcut right click etc and when it asks for the path to the exercutable type in your url. Should have thought of this earlier as I use this method all the time |

| 219587 | 2004-03-03 00:16:00 | PS. I was after the command line stuff rather than the desktop shortcut option, as one click on a batch file will now open all my IE windows [multiple] at once that i need rather than clicking on multiple shortcuts. Thanks again Dude! |

| 219590 | 2005-04-21 08:40:00 | As an AutoIt 3 Script it would be: Run("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://www.google.co.nz") Run("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://www.apple.co.nz") autoit 3 (www.autoitscript.com) It allows you to make nice executables and is free too. |
